Why Thicket

Thicket is gardening the old way by hand, close to the ground, slow enough to notice what’s really happening. Secateurs, shears, spades, rakes, saws. No machines roaring, no shortcuts. Just quiet work that lets the garden breathe.

The aim is simple gardens that feel natural and alive. Cottage borders that spill and soften, wild corners left to grow into themselves, perennials that return each year. Spaces where plants belong, and where birds, bees, and insects find their way back.

Every choice is made with the long view in mind. Soil built with compost and mulch, not chemicals. Plants are picked to suit their place. Cuts made to strengthen, not strip. It’s gardening that follows the seasons and favours biodiversity, so the garden grows tougher, richer, and more alive with time.

Choosing Thicket means choosing presence over perfection. It’s not about chasing neat edges, it’s about steady care, rooted in horticultural skill, that brings a garden back to life and keeps it there.

If that’s the kind of gardening you’re after, Thicket is for you.
