Our Story
Founded in 2020, Beorn Wilde Eco Spaces began as a freelance organic gardening practice, created out of a desire to do things differently. Rather than following the conventional, highly manicured approach to gardening, Beorn set out to work with nature — creating healthier gardens that were better for people, wildlife, and the wider environment.
As an independent gardener, Beorn worked closely with clients to care for and restore their gardens, developing a practical, hands-on understanding of how outdoor spaces change over time. This naturally led to a broader, more holistic approach.
In 2023, Beorn Wilde Eco Spaces expanded into a garden design and rejuvenation company, specialising in wildlife-friendly, sustainable gardens. Today, the focus is on designing and restoring gardens to create richly layered, habitat-focused spaces that support biodiversity and bring gardens to life.
Our ethos
At the heart of Beorn Wilde Eco Spaces is a belief that gardens should function as thriving ecosystems, not over-manicured spaces disconnected from nature. Guided by permaculture principles, we design spaces that support biodiversity, sustainability, and resilience in the face of a changing climate.
The climate crisis is one of the most pressing issues of our time, and our ethos is simple: big change starts small. Private gardens play a crucial role in this. Collectively, the UK’s gardens cover more land than all of our national nature reserves combined, making them essential for wildlife, carbon capture, and climate resilience.
While ecology sits at the core of our work, great garden design is always about people too. We create beautiful, functional spaces that support wellbeing, feel personal to those who use them, and become lower maintenance over time — proving that wildlife-friendly gardens can be both practical and deeply rewarding.

Growing with purpose
We’re at an exciting stage of growth, with far more ideas and opportunities than we can realise alone.
We are actively looking to work with other skilled and motivated people, including garden designers, horticulturists, landscapers and labourers who share an interest in ecological and regenerative gardening.
We also value collaboration and regularly seek to connect with other practitioners, specialists and organisations working towards similar environmental goals. If you’re interested in working with us or exploring potential collaborations, we welcome you to contact us.
