Authors Bio:

Based in the suburbs of Melbourne, Connie has spent the past eight years (and counting!) transforming a backyard full of weeds into a abundant space overflowing with veggies, berries, fruit, flowers and beneficial plants. And as of a few months ago, chickens as well!

Beyond growing food, Connie see's the garden as a teacher of deeper life lessons of awe, gratitude, acceptance and healing. Connie encourages everyone to embrace the imperfect perfection of nature, and give gardening a go, no matter their experience.
