Gardening has always been a source of solace, a connection to nature's beauty. But as age and physical limitations creep in, tending to your beloved garden can become a challenge. The joy of nurturing plants and witnessing them bloom shouldn't fade with time.
At Bloom Buddies, we understand that your love for gardening knows no bounds. My name is Joanne Deacon and I will work alongside you to ensure that every leaf, bud, and blossom thrives under your care. I believe that the joy of gardening should remain a part of your life, regardless of the hurdles you face.
Begin by sharing your gardening aspirations and preferences with me. I will take the time to understand your unique needs, sharing in your passion to create a beautiful garden.
As your Companion Gardener I will work hand-in-hand with you. I will assist with planting, weeding, watering, and everything in between. Your garden will thrive as we orchestrate a symphony of colours, scents, and life.
Watch as your garden transforms into a living canvas of beauty. With my assistance, you'll be able to enjoy the rewards of your efforts, soaking in the vibrant colours and fragrant blooms.
As a local in the Tonbridge and Malling area, I understand the importance of community and connections. My friendly nature ensures that our gardening sessions are not only productive but also enjoyable. We'll share stories, laughter, and the joy of gardening together.
I treat every garden as a sacred space, fostering connections that go beyond horticulture. I take pride in creating a harmonious bond with both you and your garden. With a deep appreciation for nature's wonders, I'm dedicated to bringing life and vitality to your green space.
For those who find solace in the company of a furry friend, I have a special treat. Meet Bonny, my registered therapy dog. She's not just my four-legged sidekick; she's a source of comfort and companionship, adding an extra layer of joy to our gardening sessions. Bonny loves spreading smiles and tail wags wherever she goes.
Due to my mobility problems, my garden had become a bit neglected since last Summer. Then I saw Jo's website for gardening services and decided to use her expertise which is very extensive. I've had three visits from Jo who has completely transformed my garden - including painstakingly picking out all the numerous sycamore seedlings that fell from neighbours' trees! It is a joy to work alongside Jo, even with my limited abilities, and she is very knowledgeable about planting and the care of plants. Jo has been very flexible with subsequent bookings whether on a regular or ad hoc basis. Added to Jo's services, is her adorable and beautiful sidekick, dog Bonny, who is an absolute delight - especially if you have a cold sausage to give to her! I have no hesitation in recommending Jo's gardening services.
- SandraWe have a large garden and cultivating it has been one of my pleasures in life. Now that I’m 85 and have spinal problems I can do very little of the work myself, but I don’t want to hand it over to someone else entirely; I still want to feel involved. That’s how it is with Jo. I’m out there with her: I’m doing what I can from a chair whilst she diligently digs, prunes, weeds and plants as we chat. Jo has a cheerful, caring personality and is not deterred by rainy weather. Before she arrives, I think about what needs to be done and make a list, Jo adds suggestions from her knowledge and experience - then gets stuck in. It’s a super arrangement and I still feel in control!
- AnnHaving a local gardener who understands the area and brings along the adorable Bonny has transformed my gardening experience. It's like tending to my garden with friends by my side. My garden was out of control, but Joanne has got me back on track again!
- AliceI work within the area of Tonbridge and Malling and surrounding villages.
I charge £25 per hour with a minimum of 2hrs per visit. All travelling expenses are included.
No problem, I will still visit and hope you are well again for my next one.
That's not a problem. I will come as planned (unless the weather is extreme) but I wouldn't expect you to come out and work with me.
I'm extremely flexible and can schedule visits on a weekly, bi-weekly (fortnightly), monthly, or as needed basis, depending on the specific requirements of each garden.
Sorry, my service is specifically for senior citizens and those with physical limitations who want to still be involved in their garden but could do with another pair of hands to help out.
Yes, I am DBS checked and I have public liability insurance.
Yes of course. Please get in contact and we can discuss options.
