About TidyGardens

Hi my name is Katrina I am 36 and live in a cool little town in NZ called Otorohanga.  I love gardening so much that I started my own garden maintenance business called Tidy Gardens a couple of years ago.  I look after private gardens as well as the council town gardens and around 190 hanging baskets in our main street.

I love taking photos of gardens, flowers, bugs.

I have a 8yr old daughter who also loves gardening & animals, we have 1 pony, 3 cats & 1 dog.  The farm we live on has 5 other horses and 300 something cows which my partner milks.
