The Greener Gardeners is run by Nicky Buley. I am a skilled horticulturalist, and my focus is on on climate-friendly gardening practices.  I studied for a BA in Geography, and hold an RHS Level 2 Certificate in Practical Horticulture, and a Permaculture Design Certificate.  I have extensive experience both planning and maintaining ornamental and edible gardens.  I founded The Greener Gardeners in 2017, and since 2023 I have also worked as a Project Co-ordinator for a community food growing project based in Barnes. My work draws on a range of approaches, including regenerative growing, organic gardening and permaculture.

​

In addition to my practical experience planning and maintaining gardens, I am a skilled group facilitator.  I came to horticulture having previously worked for many years in social care, and have experience managing volunteers and leading social horticulture sessions.  I have extensive experience designing and delivering training on all aspects of climate-friendly growing.

 

I am fully insured and have an up-to-date DBS certificate.
