Green Gecko Studios designs gardens, provides educational workshops and shoots garden and travel photos. The multi-faceted studio was established by me, Monina Gilbey. I have designed a number of gardens for private residences, schools, councils and community groups. Native and edible gardens are my passion.
For a number of years, I have worked as a garden specialist in school kitchen gardens. I love to share my expertise through garden education workshops for councils, schools and community groups. I also visits schools for garden craft incursions.
