    Hello all at Gardeners Corner

    I am new to this site. I was sole gardener at a local golf club but have just quit that after just over 6 years to have a go at being a self-employed gardener. Wish me luck.

    Look forward to gaining knowledge and friends here.

    Tina

    Hello to Joolz68 and Cluess1 :)

    It was several large borders near and surrounding the clubhouse, plus a garden used for weddings. I was a tad busy but as usual underappreciated and underpaid lol Hence my reason for having ago at going it alone. Pretty nervous, haven't any idea what I am doing but it has to be better than nothing or worse having a boss lol

      If there is anyone out there who knows about starting up on their own as a self-employed gardener Grannie Annie that will be an added bonus at the moment.

      Gardening is a subject where you are always learning and that is why I like it so much :) I never tire of gardening, but maybe people who know me do lol
