Val de Bagnes • Verbier to Levron
Full-service landscaping for the valleys we call home — design, stonework, planting and care, crafted to energise and restore your soul.
Rooted in nature • Growing creativity
We craft and maintain outdoor spaces that connect people to nature — a personal place to energise and restore your soul.
The Barefoot Gardener is a professional, friendly, full-service landscaping company serving every village and hamlet of the Val de Bagnes — from Verbier to Bruson, and Lourtier to Levron.
We’re passionate about the outdoors, and we believe we have a real opportunity to catalyse a more harmonious world — one garden, more peace and more biodiversity at a time.
What we do
From design and conceptualisation to implementation, project management and seasonal care — we can take on the whole journey, or just the part you need a hand with.
01
The fixed features that shape a garden’s character — earth excavation, walls and fences, terracing, greenhouses, sheds, outdoor saunas, raised beds and in-ground trampolines.
Call us for a free consultation →02
The living elements that bring a garden to life — planting strategies for colour, aroma and biodiversity, drawing in the insects, bees, birds and small mammals that make a place hum.
Let’s bring your garden to life →03
Building or renovating? We help shape the vision — practical, functional, beautiful spaces designed around how you live. From old-school pencil drawings to AI-generated imagery to align the dream.
Let’s cultivate your dream garden →04
Every garden is striving to flourish, and every garden needs tending. Weekly attention to the detail, or seasonal help with the heavier jobs you can’t keep up with — a solution that fits your life.
Let’s tend it together →05
We love trees — you might call us tree-huggers. We plant them, care for them and help them reach their full potential. And when a tree must make way for a new vision, we handle that too.
Call on our tree-care skills →06
Nature-inspired design that works with the land, not against it — composting, water strategy, food forests, bio-mimicry and whole-system permaculture design for a garden that gives back.
Design with nature →Just need a hand?
Not every job needs a master plan — pruning before guests arrive, a wall that needs fixing, a one-off tidy or a tricky tree. And if you’re tackling a project yourself, we’re happy to work alongside you and lend an extra pair of experienced hands whenever you need them.
How we work
A calm, considered process — so you always know what's happening, and your garden ends up exactly where it should.
Recent work
Hardscaping · Garden Maintenance · Forestry & Tree Surgery
A steep, unusable slope reborn as a series of dry-stone terraces — flagstone paths threading between rock-garden planting that softens the structure and draws in the bees.
Hardscaping · Softscaping · Permaculture Consulting
Hand-laid local stone wrapping a traditional chalet — a generous flagstone patio for long summer evenings, built to weather a century of alpine seasons.
Garden Maintenance · Forestry & Tree Surgery · Permaculture Consulting
A natural stone path that walks you out into the view — set into pollinator planting and native grasses, so the garden blurs softly into the landscape beyond it.
We have a responsibility — and an opportunity — to catalyse a more harmonious world: more peace, more biodiversity, one garden at a time.

We're a hands-on crew who genuinely love this work — the kind of people who get excited about a well-laid stone, a thriving border, or a tree finally finding its feet.
Local, dependable and a little bit barefoot at heart, we treat every garden as if it were our own. Meet the faces behind The Barefoot Gardener.

Good to know
Every garden and budget is different. The easiest way to get a real answer is a quick chat — the first visit is free.
Ask us anything →We work throughout the Val de Bagnes — every village and hamlet from Verbier to Bruson, and Lourtier to Levron, including Le Châble, Vollèges, Champsec, Versegères, Etiez and Sarreyer. If you’re nearby and not sure, just ask.
Yes — always. We’ll come and walk the space with you, talk through ideas and what’s realistic, and there’s no obligation to go any further. It’s the best way for both of us to see if we’re a good fit.
We can take on the whole journey — design and conceptualisation, implementation and project management — or step in for just the part you need, whether that’s a single dry-stone wall or a season of maintenance.
Hardscaping is the fixed structure of a garden — walls, terracing, paths, patios and built features. Softscaping is the living layer — the planting strategies that bring colour, scent and biodiversity. Most gardens need a thoughtful balance of both.
It’s at the heart of what we do. From composting and water strategy to food forests and whole-system permaculture design, we love building gardens that work with the land and give back to it.
In the Alps, timing matters. Hardscaping can often run through the shoulder seasons, while planting is best in spring and autumn. The sooner we talk, the better we can plan around the mountain calendar — popular slots fill up early.
