After many years of carrying out tree surveys for safety and development purposes, I will be retiring from this work, to concentrate on other things.
From January 2024 I will no longer be offering tree surveying as a service.
I wish to thank all my previous customers for their business.
We have had a busy summer here at Artemisia, despite Covid putting paid to all of our selling events at the local markets.
I have had the pleasure of designing some amazing new spaces for clients and I am looking forward to the autumn months when I will be doing the planting of these new gardens, once the landscapers have finished their part of the jigsaw.
We have also been busy with tree surveys across North Yorkshire. Sadly the rise of Ash dieback in the region is leading to many people contacting us with concerns about their trees and how safe they are.
Finally, we have the pleasure of announcing that Jan will have an article published in Permaculture Magazine at the end of the month. The article looks at the permaculture approach to garden design and how it makes for a more beautiful, useful and nature friendly garden. Permaculture magazine (winter issue 106) is available at all large newsagents.
Hello garden lovers.. Due to all the farmers markets being closed, I am starting a delivery service for Scarborough, Whitby and Malton.
I have a selection of organically grown, bee friendly perennial flowering plants, a few herbs and vegetables for sale.
If you would like a copy of my current plant list, please contact me via the contact page.
Orders over £25 delivered for free, otherwise a delivery charge will be levied.
I look forward to hearing from you 🙂🌷🌸🐝
Thanks,
Jan

As everyone should know by now, I do like to promote gardens as being sanctuaries for bees. From growing plants without pesticides to choosing a range of nectar rich blooms throughout the seasons, there is plenty a gardener can do to help our pollinators.
So I was delighted when I discovered that the Bumble Bee Conservation Trust have developed an app called Bee Kind, where you can see which plants are best for bees and you can also work out how pollinator friendly your garden is.

So if you want to see how you can make your garden a haven for wildlife, have a look at this link.
In the meantime, I will be using it to see if I can expand my range of organic beefriendly plants for sale for next years markets!
During the month of June, Artemisia Gardens will be attending a market every weekend!
With the weather now warming up nicely and plenty of rain, it’s the perfect time to treat yourself to some lovely new pollinator friendly flowers to jazz up your summer borders.
We will also be selling a range of herbs and vegetables, all grown in organic compost, without any artificial fertilisers or pesticides.
Find us at the following venues:
1st June – Hovingham Village market
9th June – Brandsby market
16th June – Sheriff Hutton village market
22nd June – Helperby market
29th June – Coxwold market
We are very excited to launch our new website. We hope that it showcases more accurately the wide range of services that we offer as well as reflecting our business ethics.
Please take time to explore what we offer and do get in touch with any feedback, we would love to hear from you!
Artemisia is delighted to announce that we have been chosen to work alongside architects BHD Partnership from Whitby to create a new garden and welcome area at Staithes Bank Top.
Adjacent the public car park, the design will incorporate a 3 metre high sculpture of a lobster and will provide an interesting and harmonious garden area which we hope will echo the beauty of the natural surrounding of Staithes and link to the artistic and coastal heritage which attracts so many visitors each year.
The project is supported and funded by the North York Moors National Parks Authority, who we look forward to working with.
