Our work

Before and after: real gardens we look after

Every photo on this page is a real job from across the areas Together Green Gardening serves, taken on Glen's phone as the work happened. Nothing here is a stock photo or a stand-in; if a lawn looks patchy before and striped after, that's because it genuinely was.

The gallery is a small sample of the gardens Together Green Gardening looks after through the year, from a first cut on a neglected lawn to a garden cleared back from years of overgrowth. More before and after photos are added as jobs are finished.
