About Linda

I have a passion  for good food grown and prepared locally and enjoy helping you create your own bountiful garden.

My childhood was spent in a vegetable garden and wandering the bush with my parents, picking wild foods, harvesting honey and growing almost all our vegetables and fruit on a ¼ acre block.

This helped to sow the seeds of a love of nature and the potential for productive gardens. I even proudly entered my flower or vegetable exhibits in the annual Horticultural shows.

I have been facilitating workshops and professional development courses in workplaces and for home gardeners for over 2 decades. I'm also in demand to present at events like Delectable and Regional Flavours, helping people create sustainable gardens and healthy lives.
