Gardener - highly recommended

Recommended Posts

I'd like to recommend Jo Barker ? very highly! She has done fabulous work in our gardens in London and Kent.


In London, she does ?normal? gardening eg pruning, planting, clearing, making everything look good.


In Kent, she?s designed and planted up an edible organic forest garden for us. It is in its second year and is already a lot less work than a normal garden. In addition, it will look after itself after the third year (well, 2-3 days work over the whole year, spread out in 10 min slots). And, most importantly, she?s designed it to give us organic salads and veg for 12 months of the year, and fruit for 8 months of the year. (I picked a salad for 10 people on New Year?s day.) Plus it is beneficial to wildlife.


Jo is a qualified permaculture teacher and is passionate about designing gardens for people and wildlife. If you want to learn how to do it yourself, you could go on one of her courses. Or do what I did and just get her to design it for you, and help you plant it up. Contact her on 07747 386 994

    • Whether the march still goes ahead will depend on what happens in the next couple of days, I imagine. Things have looked hopeful before, but fingers crossed this time is different. Have you actually read the posts above? Do you understand the difference between antisemitism and being against the Israeli government killing thousands of civilian adults and children? Do you understand why people were intending to demonstrate against our own government's involvement in killing thousands of civilian adults and children by supplying arms to Israel? It seems not. Why on earth would a march "still go ahead "to demonstrate antisemitism"?
    • Now there is a peace agreement, the only reason this would still go ahead is to demonstrate antisemitism.
    • Sadly everyone's in East Dulwich is. The move has been nothing but a complete disaster for us. And now  I gather that the office isn't even open most of the time, if you could get to it. It must be so disheartening to be a postie there knowing your bosses are forcing you to give a poor service by prioritising more lucrative parcel delivery. That was so much a privatisation too far. 
    • I am currently dealing with numerous cases of clay shrinkage subsidence in Dulwich, and have had some success in getting TPOs lifted. I also agree with the comments about being cautious about getting insurers involved and I’m in the Insurance Post Magazine this week discussing this subject. I have written a blog on my website about it too. It’s a huge problem which is currently escalating enormously. UK Subsidence (clay shrinkage and trees) Fb group has experts on it (incl myself) giving free advice and is a useful resource.My Insurer has withdrawn subsidence cover.pdf
