Our gardens can and should be a place to find joy and equilibrium, not a list of daunting tasks that make us feel squeezed in our already busy lives.

 

I set up HOW TO LOVE YOUR GARDEN in response to this - as a way to empower people to get out there and get gardening with a bit of a helping hand along the way.

 

My own route into gardening was circuitous.  I was first blown away by plants when, as a child, my mother showed me how to grow a Hyacinth bulb in my granny’s old forcing vase during the depths of Winter.  But it was many years later while busy in the music industry that I realised the amount of time I spent dreaming about and working in my own London garden was quietly leading me to re-think my career.
