About

I have been gardening professionally since 2008, I’ve been growing vegetable gardens since I was 13 and my interest in wild edible and medicinal plants began early in childhood. Knowledge of the growth and propagation habits of domestic and ornamental plants grew easily out of wild botany; all plants are really quite similar in their needs and desires and ornamental varieties were bred from the wild ones.

In 2011 I became PDC certified at Verge Permaculture. This furthered my expertise in natural landscapes, low-maintenance and closed loop systems, and in soil chemistry. My experience in botany is borne out of reading, experimentation and observation in the garden and am constantly increasing my self-taught body of knowledge.
