About the Team

The Perennial is the result of a long standing dream of the two founding partners, Gill and Pippa. They wanted to create a productive garden and a space that brings pleasure to visitors and grow top quality plants, salad leaves and vegetables without the aid of chemicals, pesticides or peat. Gill has retired now but can still be seen at the Perennial occasionally, nourishing the newer woodland areas. Mary nourishes the salad business and Nick and Caroline run the shop and cafe. They create and source wonderful food for the cafe - including their unique Ramona gelato.

The mission for the Perennial is to inspire and enthuse visitors to garden and grow in their own spaces however small (or large). The Perennial also hopes to put something back into the local community through employing and training younger staff, adding to the St Davids visitor experience and supporting the best of local food producers.

The Perennial is supported by a very able team of knowledgeable friendly staff who are here to make your visit enjoyable.
