It is our amazing team of staff & volunteers that keep the garden growing, alongside support from our local community.
Cristy
Cristy works with flowers: growing, designing and creating! Flying the flag for seasonal, naturally grown flowers and creative Floristry!
She is from a visual arts and performance background, and after studying and working in floristry in Australia, moved to Scotland to create a unique and beautiful new flower business.
Will usually be heard across the farm laughing at something rude or ridiculous!
Sam
Loves growing vegetables! You will find him grafting, either with a mattock whacking out weeds in the field or doting on plant babies in the propagation tunnel.
He is also a fountain of plant knowledge, and has an encyclopedic understanding of the farm, built from its first days.
Judith
Does a little bit of everything! She is always looking for new projects to incorporate into an already busy market garden and how to spread the word and inspire others to grow things!
Likes finding new nooks and crannies to have a wee nap on the field without being seen!
Local Volunteers
Who come and help throughout the whole year come rain, shine, snow or gale!
Bringing recharged energy each week they keep the garden going with enthusiasm, support and so many skills.
Trainees
Every spring we welcome new aspiring trainee growers to our team, people who would like to get hands on, practical experience in running their own growing business. They help with all aspects of the garden and also bring new skills and start new projects which help make Tomnah’a such a diverse, productive and creative place.
We usually look for new trainees in the Autumn for the following season, please get in touch if you would like to be kept updated.
Handsome Eric
Little Prince of Pest Control- mainly voles but anything that moves quickly, including small children..
Ferociously bold and stubborn and will follow you around until he gets some attention.
