Our Story

A local business with a story worth telling properly.

Sapphire Coast Garden Love has been run by Bertie Fagan since 2021. Before taking the business on, Bertie learned the ropes from its previous owner — something he’s especially proud of. It was quite a change of direction: Bertie started out as a criminal lawyer in Sydney, and later became a radio host on Sapphire FM.

What drew him to gardening was simple: a love of working outdoors, getting his hands dirty and being out in nature — and spending time with great people on the Sapphire Coast, helping bring a bit of love and joy to their gardens. He came to the coast looking for a quieter life, away from the hustle and bustle of Sydney, and today looks after lawns and gardens across Eden, Bega, Merimbula, Tathra and Pambula.

Local Expertise

Local Knowledge, Not Guesswork

The Sapphire Coast isn’t like every other region. We work across Eden, Bega, Merimbula, Tathra and Pambula regularly enough to know how local conditions change from one town to the next, and we adjust our approach to suit.

Local Lawn Care for Coastal Gardens

Coastal gardens need a slightly different approach.

Coastal salt air, sandy soils in places, and a distinct wet-summer growing season all affect how a lawn or garden behaves here. We work across Eden, Bega, Merimbula, Tathra and Pambula regularly enough to know how local conditions change from one town to the next, and we adjust our approach accordingly rather than running the same routine everywhere.
