About

I’m Rupert Turnbull, the founder of Hedge & Root, est. 2025
With a strong background in agriculture and land-based industries, my passion lies in enhancing biodiversity and improving the natural environment through thoughtful, skilled garden care.
I bring hands-on experience from working in all weather conditions in a variety of environments from maintaining private gardens to large estates.
I offer a full range of general garden maintenance services and I also specialise in traditional hedge laying—a valuable method for promoting wildlife corridors and managing rural landscapes sustainably.
Before starting Hedge & Root, I worked as a Rural Surveyor after gaining my degree from the Royal Agricultural University in Cirencester. With a background working in agriculture and land-based industries, I am well-versed in health and safety procedures and have extensive experience working directly with clients, which has shaped my values of professionalism, reliability, and clear communication, alongside excellent client care.
At the heart of my work is a commitment to improving biodiversity and providing a high-quality, bespoke and dependable service.
