Welcome — I’m Luke, a working gardener from Yorkshire. If you're thinking about starting your own gardening business (or you’ve already begun), this page will show you exactly where to begin.
Whether you're here from my ebook, social media, or Google, this website is your hub for building a profitable, sustainable gardening business in the UK — based entirely on real experience working with real customers.
Everything here is based on real jobs, real experience, and real customers.
Before you go any further, download the Gardening Business Starter Toolkit. It gives you practical starting points so you’re not guessing on day one. If you’re unsure how much a gardener should charge in the UK, I’ve also put together a clear, real-world pricing guide to help.
If you want the quickest win in this business, it’s pricing. Most gardeners undercharge early on and stay stuck.
I built a practical pricing system you can apply immediately: The Gardening Business Pricing Toolkit.

If you want to know who I am, how I started, and why I built this website, head over to the About page.
I didn’t come from a business background. I started with a handful of tools, a desire to work outdoors, and a drive to build something real for myself and my family. Everything here is based on that journey.
This website will grow over time with practical tools to help you run and improve your gardening business, including:
If you have questions, feedback, or want to share your progress, I’d love to hear from you.
Over the coming months I’ll be adding:
If you want updates, make sure you grab the Free Toolkit — that way you’ll be the first to know when new resources are released.
Starting a gardening business is one of the best decisions I ever made. It gave me independence, purpose, income, and a connection to nature.
My goal with the Gardening Business Lab is to help you build the same — without all the mistakes I made early on.
Let’s build something great.
