shopgirl Posted January 19, 2010 Share Posted January 19, 2010 Can anyone recommend a good, reliable and reasonably priced gardening service in CM? I have one supplied by my Moo Baan already but am not happy with it. Will take suggestions gladly. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Asmerom Posted January 19, 2010 Share Posted January 19, 2010 I'm sure you'll inevitably be told that this topic has been well covered already and to just use the search facility. Well, if you do, you'll be amazed at the result. For "gardening services" you just get referred to your own post. Very helpful! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FarangCravings Posted January 19, 2010 Share Posted January 19, 2010 Try http://www.thaivisa.com/forum/Organic-Farm...-Kitc-f142.html however most gardeners will have to come from word of mouth not much on it on this forum but you may get a member replying reccomending theirs Might be an idea to post the area you live for local reccomendations Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
newbie001 Posted January 19, 2010 Share Posted January 19, 2010 farang cravings is right. Without an actual location it will be hard to give recommendations. I know of several gardeners but they are regionally specific. Most don't travel more than a few kilometers it isn't worth it for them. Unfortunately, most of the crews that I have contact information for are booked or quite old. We had one guy that was 76. He was awesome but just retired this year.

jackr Posted January 20, 2010 Share Posted January 20, 2010 I won't use any as I like to keep the garden in tact. Great if you can find a good, conscientious gardener working alone, but invariably it'll be a team of monkeys who don't really know <deleted> they're doing.

noise Posted January 20, 2010 Share Posted January 20, 2010 Shopgirl, My wife's cousin Nong graduated from Mae Jo with a landscaping degree and has a gardening service. But, as newbie001 wrote, location makes a difference. Nong works mainly in the San Sai/Mae Jo area but may travel elsewhere, depending upon the job (length of employment, rate, etc.). One factor may also be if you have equipment for him to use or not. For example, he may be willing to go to Hang Dong if he does not have to haul all the equipment. And do you have refuse removal through your moo baan or will he have to do that, also. PM me if he might be able to help you and I can give you the contact details. He speaks some English.

shopgirl Posted January 25, 2010 Author Share Posted January 25, 2010 Thanks for the tip. I live in Nam Phrae on the canal road. Anybody know any good services in that area? I need a full service - they must have own equipment etc. Try http://www.thaivisa.com/forum/Organic-Farm...-Kitc-f142.html however most gardeners will have to come from word of mouth not much on it on this forum but you may get a member replying reccomending theirsMight be an idea to post the area you live for local reccomendations Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've taken down all I can, but I'm 80 yeas old and also very upset by losing the beauty of the creeper. Desperately need a good gardener to repair the damage and make it look good again. . Have some equipment and the dead wood is traditionally dumped on the land at the back of the house. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
