50 Gardens in one Month

50 Gardens in one Month It isn’t often you can say you have visited over 50 gardens in one month, but this November that is what I did.  Well, if I’m completely honest – a few were in the very tail end of October and one of the gardens was mine, so the exact tally is a little hazy, but it was all part of … Continue reading 50 Gardens in one Month

I'm super proud of my new book Growing Vegetables - A simple guide for New Zealand gardeners. It's aim is to provide gardeners with a good solid foundation of knowledge, supporting them through the first growing season with weekly guidance and timely advice. Its packed with tips and techniques, planning charts, and places to record notes and is a handy resource of trusted, reliable gardening information, quick to access and easy to understand. Where to find a copy: This should be available at all good bookstores throughout New Zealand. If your local bookstore doesn’t have it, ask them to get it in for you. : o) ...

Today I had a fabulous time sharing my 'Don't Believe Everything You See on the Internet' talk with the lovely folk at the Pakuranga Park Village Garden Club.Although I did suggest they could trust me... I'd be mortified if I led anyone astray! : o) ...
