“My #GardenHappy is not only shown in this pic but more the story behind it. My 81 year old father, a lifetime gardener, has recently had a major operation and has had his mobility massively reduced. I’ve been helping him in his garden & it’s been a lovely chance to reacquaint myself with the man responsible for many things I hold dear including my love of gardening. Plus, we get fresh veg!”

“#GardenHappy I only really started gardening a few years ago to aid in my photography projects, but it’s now become a hobby in itself! I guess I’m most happy when I introduce a new plant and it immediately begins to attract wildlife to the garden!

“It’s the secondish year of gardening now and what makes me #GardenHappy is creating a garden my partner’s always desired, also the fact it helps me regain strength in my back and is slowly helping me get back to a more fulfilling life. It brings people together in a peaceful way like nothing else does and has give the opportunity to truly relax and recover from treatments. The joy of seeing everything come together through the seasons, no matter how small the change, is like a gift from the garden”

“This is what makes me happy… simply sitting admiring the colourful flowers in my garden, especially after the rain. That feeling of peace and happiness. Also, sharing my love of gardening here! #GardenHappy”

“This is what makes me #GardenHappy…. knowing that none of this border was here last summer and is only here now because I grew and planted it all. Now it’s always buzzing with bees and butterflies and there are frogs and toads in the pond that we put in nearby”

“My biggest success this year as a novice gardener. #GardenHappy”
