It is our amazing team of staff & volunteers that keep the garden growing, alongside support from our local community.
Cristy
Cristy is one of the founding members of Tomnah’a and heads the flower team.
She is the person to contact for all things flower related – (except weddings!) if you are looking for funeral flowers, want to send flowers locally, if you are a florist wanting to source wholesale flowers, organize a floristry workshop, participate in a Pick Your own Flowers session, or want to get in touch about volunteering with the flower team.
She is also a founding member of the (Scottish) Flower Grower Collective and committed to building the Scottish cut flower sector, and generally supporting people on their path to growing and using seasonal flowers.

Sam
Sam is an original member of the team, and is in charge of all things veg at Tomnaha.
He has an encyclopedic understanding of the farm and can generally be found grafting (fruit trees, or with a mattock!)
If you have general enquiries about veg, particularly wholesale, Sam is the person to contact.

Judith
Does a little bit of everything! She is always looking for new projects to incorporate into an already busy market garden and how to spread the word and inspire others to grow things! She is one of the founding members of the Tomnaha team.
At the moment, Judith is working to make better use of our willow and other perennial plants. She is also developing an events programme, so more people can enjoy and be inspired by the farm. She is the point of contact for events enquiries.

Catherine
Catherine is a year-round member of the veg team. She coordinates our seasonal Veg Shares, and is the person to get in touch with for veg box enquiries.
She is also involved in wider networks to develop better learning and training opportunities for growers, and to campaign for more support for small-scale farmers.
Charli
Charli is our wedding Florist and is the point of contact for all wedding inquiries.
She is a member of the Sustainable Floristry Network and committed to helping couples create floral decor that is not only beautiful and bespoke, but sustainable and using only seasonal flowers and botanicals from Tomnah’a and its surroundings.
Seasonal Workers and WWOOFers
We couldn’t do what we do without the talented and hardworking people who join us to work here each season. We also welcome volunteers through Worldwide Opportunites on Organic Farms (WWOOF) during the summer.
Local Volunteers
Amazing local people come and help throughout the whole year come rain, shine, snow or gale! They bring recharged energy each week they keep the garden going with enthusiasm, support and so many skills. If you’d like to be part of this crew and want to find out more, email info@tomnaha.com.
