The garden is a south facing, layered perennial sanctuary designed as an ARK (Act of Restorative Kindness) to mirror a woodland edge, where edible abundance meets wild biodiversity. This low-maintenance regenerative food forest is thriving with walnuts, apples, plums, cherries, currants, berries, herbs, and flowers. By following [ARK principles]( and working with nature, the current owners have created a vital haven for hedgehogs and slow worms, building a resilient ecosystem that nurtures both local wildlife and an abundant chemical-free harvest.
