What do you love most about your job?

I just love being out and about in our beautiful county helping customers make the very most of their gardens, whether its with an established already well manicured garden, a new build garden, something that has perhaps got a bit out of hand or for one of the several large estates we help to care for - all of them are equally challenging in their own way.

What inspired you to start your own business?

Prior to Highland Green coming along I had worked for 25 years at the high end of the sports turf industry on many prestigious sites and projects. In the golfing world I started out as a greenkeeper for 5 years at Loch Lomond Golf Club after which I had the privilege to work on projects at St Andrews Links, Gleneagles and Turnberry Golf Clubs before turning to football stadia such as (in no particular order) Hampden, Ibrox, Celtic Park, Commonwealth Games 2014 (various sites) and even for Olympiakos in Greece. Such beauty and wonder as all of these special places and projects had I found that I was always pulled back towards Moray - a place where I had always visited on holidays as a kid and even into adulthood with my own family, and it is now a place where I proudly and happily call home

Why should our clients choose you?

We are a local family run business who just love what we do - let us come and see what you've got, give you some good advice (its free!) and if we can help you after that then great!

Can you provide your services online or remotely? If so, please add details.

What changes have you made to keep your customers safe from Covid-19?

As gardeners we find it easy to naturally 'socially distance' within a garden setting. Our equipment is wiped down after every use, we use more gloves than ever, either nitrile for certain tasks or various types of safety glove dependant on the task. We have accelerated our 'paper-less' ambitions by changing the way we invoice our customers to on-line and regular monthly payments.
