“The design of gardens is a compelling journey and art form for me. A garden has the ability to deeply affect how people live.”

 Trudy has been designing gardens for over 30 years. She runs a small  business from The Far North and works throughout the country, with a  depth of work ranging from tiny urban courtyards to large farms and  coastal properties, shopping centres and resorts, from school produce  gardens to gardens for Prime Ministers.

 Participating in environmental projects is equally important to Trudy.  She is a trustee of “Clean Waters to the Sea”, monitors kiwi in The Far  North and volunteers for Puketi Forest Trust and Friends of Rangikapiti.
