Garden stories

Follow on Instagram for behind-the-scenes stories from my garden, tiny nursery and the green community beyond. Wildlife and wildflowers are the stars of my ordinary garden space: showing the joy of nature that’s possible even with busy roads nearby, planes overhead and an uncertain world beyond. It’s a space for inspiration, reflection, and practical ideas that hopefully chimes with you in your own wild space - real or imagined.
