As a garden designer, my aim is to design gardens that are stylish and beautiful, and complement the nearby architecture. My garden design services also include fruit trees, shrubs and perennial edible plants. You can grow food easily in your own garden, contributing towards a more sustainable lifestyle. My goal as a garden designer is to empower and inspire my clients to develop their gardens into the future.
I work with a wide range of people, all enthusiastic about building a sustainable lifestyle and enhancing biodiversity in their outdoor space. I am a trained permaculture and forest garden designer; these principles are at the heart of all I do. Together we can create a stylish garden designed for outdoor living, food, herbs and wildlife. I provide coaching and mentoring sessions and a range of interactive workshops to support you to create your ideal garden.
Carpe Diem Gardens provides sustainable landscape and garden design, and a flexible programme of coaching, training and consultation.

Carpe Diem Gardens is owned and run by Jennifer Lauruol, an enthusiastic garden designer based in Lancashire.
She has over 30 years' experience, including gardening for wildlife, habitat conservation, growing medicinal and culinary herbs, designing sensory and therapeutic gardens, and working in a biodynamic market garden.
Jennifer cares passionately about the environment.
She is particularly concerned about so many habitats being lost to urbanisation, leading to the decline of many of our plant and animal species and a reduction in biodiversity.

Sustainability means designing so that we do not use more resources than our fair share; and ensuring that what we use today does not destroy the environment for people and other living things elsewhere, now or in the future.
