With nearly 40 years experience in horticulture, I am now the gardener in the walled garden at Ford Park, Ulverston, working with volunteers to maintain the garden, grow fruit and veg and propagate and produce plants to sell. Prior to this I was at the Growing Well charity for 16 years, teaching accredited horticultural courses and working with volunteers while growing veg and running educational visits for school children. In my spare time I walk our dog, Milo, go hill walking when I can and enjoy cold water swimming/dipping.
