Wow this is absolutely fascinating ! This person is totally altering the landscape of his 4 acre ‘FLAT’ field into a garden by building hills Valleys Canyons and shifting 10.000 tons of earth ! Using a digger he is doing this alone but with the support of his wife . it must be such a thrill to find a challenge like this. To create a nursery business and landscape/create the whole concept from absolutely nothing but a completely flat field. I find the subject matter so captivating….the whole concept of totally re designing the landscape ! Building lakes ponds folly’s pergola’s …some of the finished valleys planted WOW …..channel 4 8pm …..NOW ! so I am logging of to watch the rest……………

Saw the repeat, yes it is on for some weeks Julien. Bit like the 'Grand Design' programe but instead of a house its a garden. I enjoyed the scale of it and if the couple continue (funds are an issue) it will I suspect one day be a spectacular garden that everyone will wish to visit. Next weeks garden, looks to be a promising hour too.
