What people are saying

The presenter is highly knowledgeable and has a pleasing communication style supported by wonderful photographs and useful graphics. I now feel inspired and sufficiently equipped to venture forth planting a variety of native grasses for purposes of habitat establishment and the aesthetics of grass swaying in the wind” – Native Grasses Master Class 2024

Absolutely loved this! It was a real light bulb moment for me. I’ve been struggling with growing vegetables and nearly gave up altogether until watching this. I was doing everything wrong and my vegetables were weak sickly and decimated by pests. I feel armed and ready now to have another go as it just makes sense to me now. Thank you so much“. Healthy Soil Master Class 2024

Oh, this was a little piece of magic! Highly recommend doing this class – it was such a wonderful mix of seeing and doing, and I walked away feeling excited about incorporating this practice in my life. Thank you!” Garden Journalling Master Class 2024
