From small suburban gardens to large forest and streamside areas, we use a chemical-free methodology of restorative weed management, based on careful identification of plants, ecological assessment of landform, fauna, soil, and water flow, and 35 years of observation and experience.
Witness the remarkable transformation of your outdoor space into a thriving natural haven. Watch beauty emerge from an eyesore, through knowledgeable hand weeding, converting weed plant material to free compost, forming fertile seed beds and low-impact paths for the natural generation and protection of diverse healthy native plant communities.

This year, Pam had a missing cat, which was quite out of character. Driver let the Hursts know, and they joined the search, successfully locating him in the gap between the ceiling and roof of their neighbour’s house.
Pam said “They rescued him and brought him home to me... complete with some scratches! I hate to think what would have happened had he not been found”.
Pam nominated the Hursts to let them know she is thankful for them: “It’s so good to know I have such caring neighbours who have my back. Thank you neighbours!”
Nominate someone in your hood, and your special neighbour could feature on Stuff and Neighbourly as an inspiration to us all (plus there are prizes to be won!).
THIS PRECIOUS TREASURE IS ONLY AVAILABLE AS WE HAVE MOVED, AND REGRETTABLY WON’T FIT SPACE IN NEW HOUSE.
PICK UP ALBANY, LIFT AND TROLLEY PROVIDED.
