Who we are
Verdes y Rebeldes is a new landscaping and gardening project. “Verdes” (green) stems from our love for green organic things and “Rebeldes” (rebels) of our desire to create, where the only limit is the one set by our customers.
We focus on employing vegetation, both indoors and outdoors, to ‘splash’ your environment green. We want to help you materialize your green vision and ideas in order to help you design a space in which you find yourselves at home.
Our idea is simple: to create urban gardens and to spread among city-dwellers like you the infinite possibilities and goodness that a greener city can offer. To design and install spaces for ornamental or edible plants in your home or your business, to help you nurture them and to make them flourish.
Martin Svensson
After almost 10 years in the nursing work environment, I feel that it is time for a change. The seed was already planted when as a child spent summers at the cottage of my grandparents in Sweden. Happy to be retired, they had two huge fields where they grew vegetables and ornamentals. Walking through the fields, I was filled with a huge sense of peace and happiness.
Lately, I've been experiencing technical urban horticulture in my deck of Barcelona, trying to recreate, explore and revive the memory of the past. Season after season, harvest after harvest, gardening and horticulture have occupied a central place in my life.
After conducting several courses in gardening, I have decided to launch this project hoping to share it with you.
What do we do
What kind of service is offered by our company? We will design, will plan and build your space. We take care of maintenance, if necessary. We will help you create your own green corner in any space you have available, whether it is a window sill, a lounge, a balcony or terrace, or a solar next to your house. Our philosophy is to start working with what we have and improve it.
Design
We design, plan, develop and adapt your chosen space, according to your own vision and needs.
Installation
We install the chosen plant project and take care of monitoring the entire process.
Maintenance
We take care of your green space maintenance to keep it in perfect conditions.
Workshops and Courses
How do I set up and take care of an urban vegetable garden in my own home? We will learn how to build a small vegetable garden, how to prepare the soil with fertiliser, what seeds are the best to plant, how to maintain the patch and what are the best tricks in order for it to become our favourite edible garden.
Green coaching
Do your plants need a little bit of extra love and care? Is there a corner of your garden that is giving you headaches? Insects, dry leaves, plants looking sad? Do you want to renovate your vegetable garden and you don’t know where to start? We will visit you and help you immediately, and will offer you an easy and quick solution.
