Nicole Bowman is a New Zealand Garden Designer & Maker.

With a love of home gardens and a deep appreciation for spaces that bring wellbeing and joy, NDB Garden Studio makes naturally garden-grown goods, designed to be beautiful, well-loved and health-supporting.

Designing and growing a home garden is one of my very favourite things to do. I went to design school simply to enjoy the process of desiging my own home garden (ed and cred below)! I’ve also grown to see the absolute joy my garden experience and harvest can bring to others, and so the Garden Studio was born.

Everything is designed, grown and made by hand with the care and thought that only comes from supporting nature to do its work, and the joy of sharing a garden.

If you’d like to chat or learn about productive garden design, gardens and/or bontanicals, you are most welcome.
