ABOUT CUMBRIA GARDENS

Cumbria Gardens was set up by John and Caroline Sanderson in 1999 as a landscape and garden maintenance business. John attended the Lancashire College of Horticulture in 1984 where he studied landscape practice.

From its first introduction Cumbria Gardens has gone from strength to strength, building up a team of highly skilled individuals who bring their own skills and interests to the team.

At Cumbria Gardens we carry out a wide range of landscape types, ranging from the traditional to the more contemporary. John does however have a strong personal interest in water gardens and oriental landscape.

A little bit about John:

John has worked in horticulture for over 25 years, starting off as a trainee gardener in York at the age of seventeen. He has worked on large estates and small private gardens, public parks and garden
centres. One job that proved a bit of a challenge was the replanting of the alligator enclosure at Morecambe Marine Land with the alligators still in residence!  He attended the Lancashire College of Agriculture in Preston, where he studied general horticulture, garden design and landscape techniques. Eventually, after managing two garden centres, and looking after the grounds of a local convent, I decided to set up my own business maintaining and landscaping gardens of all sizes, in 1999.
