The company was originally formed in 2000 to supply wetland plants and willow products for landscaping and use in the garden. The director, John Robinthwaite has been involved in wetland and wildlife management for the past 15 years, having worked for the BTCV and the Wildfowl & Wetland Trust in Slimbridge. It wasn't long before local environmental consultants were calling on the new company to draw on John's experience, to undertake one-off projects that included pond creation and protected species mitigation. This side of the business soon grew to provide nationwide wildlife landscaping services such as protected species work, wildlife surveys, habitat management and erosion control.
