| Interests | Gardening locally can have an impact globally - I aim to have a simple life style which reflects my ecological concerns for the environment – seasonal produce, composting, encouraging wildlife, and using permaculture principles. Small is beautiful - I attempt to grow small quantities of fruit, vegetables and herbs and also make use of my creative and craft skills to make a pleasurable space for both wildlife and others in a small town garden – ceramic pots, bird boxes, water features, different colours, textures, scents etc.
Horticultural therapy - I value the inherent benefits of gardening for health and pleasure. Purposeful outdoor activity with physical, mental and social benefits. I have experience of facilitating vegetable allotment, cooking and craft activities for groups with mental health and social skills needs.
As a Master Gardener - I’m keen to mentor individuals, families and groups new to gardening or anyone who can benefit from the Schemes support. I’m interested to establish local groups to share gardening interests, knowledge, skills and resources. |
