Instructor

Instructor Bio:

I have been working professionally with gardens since studying organic horticulture in 2003. My passion for the outdoors and the benefits that I believe that nature can give us led me to design, build and look after gardens over a 20 year period. As Associate Horticultural Producer of the BBC1 garden makeover TV show, Garden Rescue, I also managed the builds of well over a 100 gardens. I studied horticulture at Bristol Botanic Gardens and am a Permaculture Design Certificate (PDC) accredited designer. My work in bringing nature to people's gardens has shown me that nature is in need of us too. I now seek to understand, comment and educate on gardening to support biodiversity.
