My working day at Abbey Blooms Gardens begins at 10am, checking the bins and making sure each area is clean and ready for visitors. I check the flower beds, and pathways for anything that needs attention. Throughout the day, I carry out a mix of jobs working with my supervisor doing tasks from pruning, planting, and watering to general maintenance and weeding. I make sure the gardens stay tidy, healthy, and look well, always keeping an eye out for what makes the place look at its best. Whether I am caring for plants, maintaining equipment, or supporting ongoing improvements, each day is hands‑on, and I love it. It keeps me fit and I love being outside. I have fun as well and like working with the other staff in the gardens and Cafe.
