Learn From The Best...
Meet the growing experts who you'll learn from for free in our members learning area.
Charles Dowding
Charles started experimenting with no dig back in 1982. He had an innate sense that it was the right thing to do. The results he achieved from the initial trials gave me encouragement to keep going. He was continually finding that no dig is great for producing wonderful harvests of healthy food. It’s good for the ecosystem and, it’s great for our health too.
KATE FORRESTER
Kate loves all the elements of seed propagation and planting out - it’s so exciting. She loves harvesting the goods, and has a huge weakness for all herbs is excited to start growing more flowers in the mix amongst the veg this year!
MITCH MCCULLOCH
Mitch is on a mission to unearth the worlds tastiest and rarest edible plants. As a former chef with decades of service to the stove, he believes gardening is a thrilling and active way to stay alive. Few things are more rewarding than tending to a plant from seed to harvest and being in the garden fills him with a full sense of satisfaction and allows him to enter into a magical and spiritual place where he can truly experience the best of who he is.
