WoodBlocX recently worked with Jekka McVicar, the RHS Ambassador for Health through Horticulture, on a garden project which was the focus point of the new Live Well Zone at the RHS Malvern Show.

The garden is inspired by the increasing need for reflection and escape from the stresses of modern life, and seeks to preserve and share the vital knowledge of how horticulture and its associated therapies can help soothe the mind, body and soul.

The design incorporated a number of WoodblocX curved raised beds, as well as a central seating area. WoodBlocX were on site for four days to install the garden infrastructure.

Client testimonial

Jekka McVicar said, "I am delighted to have been asked to create a lasting garden for RHS Malvern Spring Festival. I want the Health and Wellbeing Garden to be a usable and beautiful space that is embraced by people of all ages – a space for growth, education and reflection. With the Malvern Hills as a dramatic backdrop, RHS Malvern Spring Festival is such a beautiful place and because it’s at the start of the summer, it’s always a time of such optimism. It is a real privilege to bring this garden to life as part of such a dynamic and exciting show."
