About

Hi, we're Jono and Kate.
 

Let us help you create the nourishing lifestyle you've always dreamed of.

We founded Biodiverse Garden Design in early 2022. With backgrounds in landscape construction, permaculture and fine art practice, we believe in bringing magic to the everyday. Our garden supports the health of our family and we're passionate about helping others achieve the same. In the past, we struggled to switch off and our fast-paced lifestyle left us burnt out. We were concerned about the changing climate and had no idea how to make a difference. Today, we live in harmony with the seasons and we're connected to something bigger than ourselves. We nurture ecosystems and attract organisms we'd previously never seen or heard of. We grow our own food and know the simple pleasure of foraging for earthy mushrooms. We bounce out of bed and drift off with ease. There's a proven link between green spaces and mental health. They can reduce stress and improve sleep, mood and energy levels. Being able to hear bird song also has demonstrated mental health benefits. It's incredible to think that something that supports our wellbeing, and that of the planet, can also add value to a home. But, it's been widely reported that buyers are willing to pay more for eco-friendly homes as sustainability becomes the norm. Aligning home life with nature has so many benefits. In biodiverse spaces, we thrive.

FAQs

How long is your waitlist?

We can only work with 8-10 clients a year, so spots fill up fast. We have 500+ people on our waitlist and we'll be releasing a handful of spots in mid-August. 

Do you service Melbourne?

Absolutely! We love building biodiversity in Melbourne.
 

Do you have a travel radius?

Yes, but it depends on the project. Drop us a line so we can chat about your location. 

Do you work over Zoom?

We sure do. We love Zooming with clients. 

Do you customise your packages?

Our packages are fixed as the inclusions all play an essential role in achieving the best result for your dream garden.

Do you work with DIYers?

Yes! Our site plan guides DIY superstars, as it includes measurements and instructions, while our installation consultation helps you map out your next steps without overwhelm

How long does it take?

Once we've conducted the initial site consultation, you'll receive your First Draft within 3-4 months.

When should I contact you to book my design?

As a very small business, we can only work with 8-10 clients a year and book out many months in advance. The sooner you reach out the better!

I'm renovating/building. When should I engage you?

As early as possible! Designing your dream garden alongside your home ensures the best results. This way, we can ensure everything flows smoothly and plan for practical details, such as levels, access and views, from the very start.

Do you build as well as design?

We're a design-only business, but we work with trusted contractors that we can recommend for the build.

Do you create your 3D renders?

Yes, every render is crafted in-house. This is a crucial component of our design process.

Do you use AI?
No. We thoughtfully create every design. Our software doesn't have AI.
