catalogue and raises organic cows and pigs. She
specialises in teaching people who've never picked
up a spade, let alone pricked out a zinnia! |

around Britain. She also maintains flourishing
flower, vegetable, salad and herb gardens, where she
trials varieties for her seed catalogue which
specialises in unusual varieties. |
