About Spadeshire

Whether you're new to gardening or already have your hands in the soil, Spadeshire is here to help. We combine practical, seasonal advice with a simple way to find trusted gardeners and landscapers near you — so you can get the most from your patch without the guesswork.

Our guides are written for UK gardeners and focus on what actually works: from small spaces and containers to lawns, veg patches, and wildlife-friendly borders. No jargon, no fluff — just clear steps and local contacts when you need a hand.

How it works

Finding a gardener near you is straightforward. No lengthy forms or waiting for callbacks — you choose your area, see who's local, and get in touch when you're ready.

Here's what to do in three simple steps.

Pick your area

Choose your town or city from the list above or on our gardeners page. We list areas where we have verified gardeners and landscapers.
See who's local

Browse gardeners and landscapers in your area. You'll see names, locations, and ratings so you can compare and shortlist.
Get in touch

Browsing listings is free. Create a free account when you want phone numbers, websites, or to request a quote by email — no subscription.

What we offer

Practical help for your garden, whether you're after advice or a pair of hands. We focus on two things: clear, seasonal gardening content and a simple directory of local gardeners and landscapers.

Articles and browsing the directory are free. Dig into the tips when you need inspiration; use the finder when you want local pros — register free when you're ready for contact details and quotes.

Why Spadeshire

We built Spadeshire because we wanted one place that combined honest gardening advice with a straightforward way to find local help. Too many sites either overwhelm you with generic content or make it hard to see who's actually near you.

Here you get both: gardening tips that respect your time and a gardener finder that puts your area first. No paywalls on articles — a quick free account unlocks contact details and quotes when you're ready.
