Why buy new when your garden could be full of materials with a story? Frances shares her passion for reclaiming and reusing everything from old bricks and timber to windows, pallets and unexpected household finds. Discover how reclaimed materials can save money, reduce waste and bring personality to paths, patios, containers and garden structures. Frances also explains why working with what already exists can be creatively liberating, more sustainable and surprisingly accessible, even if you’re not a skilled DIYer.
