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.
A landscape design and sociology-trained gardener, my hands are always in the dirt, my head is in the function, and my heart is in beauty. Everything I grow and make here aims to combine practicality, usefulness and bring joy.
I truly believe that ‘less is more’ when it comes to our impact on our world, and my gardens and goods support the principles of regenerative practices, low travel miles, and organic inputs.
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.
