Q Tell us a bit about yourself?

As a child I grew up in the countryside and I’ve always loved nature and the outdoors. My dad had a farm in France that I would spend time working on. This experience continued into adulthood as I spent time travelling the world working and living on various farms – including a spell on a coffee farm in Colombia. This all contributed to an interest in working outdoors. I have a passion for plants like some might have for music – for me horticulture is a whole world of wonder.
