Details

This garden was based on the familiar Psalm 23, 'The Lord is my Shepherd' and was created in the hope that it would inspire churches, schools and communities nationwide to create their own Psalm 23 garden in their community.

Multi-award-winning designer Sarah Eberle interpreted the psalm as a journey through the garden using visual cues from the psalm in the design: the green pastures, still waters, and the valley of the shadow of death, ultimately leading to a place of restoration and sanctuary.

For this design we supplied over 40 tonnes of materials including several large boulders sourced from the Scottish Highlands with help from our Boulder Hunter, find out more about Sarah and Mark Gregory's trips to find boulders here.
