With her love for gardening sown at a young age, in this blog post, Lisa shared with us what she loves to grow, her first successes, and some of the benefits of gardening. She also shared with us her habit of keeping a diary when it comes to gardening and reminds us to grow what we love. Read on to learn more about Lisa’s gardening journey.

Lisa’s love for gardening began at a young age. Reflecting on this, Lisa says, she was just around 6 years old when she first took an interest in gardening with her father. She remembers spending time in the garden with her father and grandfather. “My grandfather had an allotment and my dad grew from home, these are the two that inspired me,” she says.

Since then, Lisa’s love for gardening has only grown, having learnt many important lessons along the way.
