She teaches how to grow your own food, whatever size space you have, using climate friendly and sustainable no dig methods. With decades of practical gardening and homesteading experience, she has created and worked in kitchen gardens on large private estates, community gardens, market gardens, for restaurants and art galleries, as well as allotments and home gardens. Stephanie writes for national and international publications and is the author of two books: No Dig Organic Home and Garden and The Creative Kitchen.
Stephanie’s down to earth, practical approach stems from growing food to feed her family as self sufficiently as possible, on a tight budget as a skint single mum. In 2021 she moved to just under half an acre in rural Wales with a bare canvas of weedy grass, and started creating a new garden, where she runs courses and films tutorials for You Tube and social media. This was filmed for BBC Gardeners’ World (Winter Special Episode 4, December 2022) Her goal is to try to get to be 80% self sufficient in fruit, veg and herbs, using many traditional preserving methods to store the harvests from her plot.
