Welcome to The Garden Collective
Well this is fun: we would be thrilled for you to join us, a community of gardeners who have come together because we love gardens.
In this throbbing and vibrant community, we inspire, we entertain, and we help each other to garden. We are always encouraging and never bossy.
We can answer questions, tell jokes, offer biscuits and help with the weeding.

For people who adore every part of gardening. The plants, of course, but also the language, the history, the future, the culture, the great design moments, the turning points and the talking points.
Growing plants, loving them, nurturing them, and eating them.

As well as reading and listening to individual members of the Garden Collective, you can add your thoughts on the topics they have raised, ask your most troublesome gardening questions in Q&A sessions, or listen in to members chatting to each other about what they have been up to in (and out) of the garden.
“I loved hearing Alan talking about the challenges of moving house and how to pack up a garden. I can only imagine how many pots he has! Wishing him all the best with it, and thank you so much for a lovely half an hour listen.”
