This September marks one year of running my small garden business 🌿
✨ What began as an idea to become a Sole Trader, register a NZBN after finishing my Horticulture Studies (Landscape Design) at Unitec last year, has grown into a journey of caring for and transforming clients’ gardens with ongoing maintenance and soft landscaping.
As I prepare to travel overseas at the end of this week, I’ve been reflecting on how far things have come — and I’m so excited to continue this journey when I return. Thank you to everyone who has supported me along the way 💚 #SmallBusiness #GardeningJourney #OneYearInBusiness
