Chris

Like many people from the age of eight, my earliest gardening memories were helping Grandpa in his garden, growing fruit, flowers and vegetables or writing my name on the skin of a marrow and watching my name grow over summer, to pinching the tastiest strawberry. My horticultural journey started at Oaklands College in St Alban, and many doors have opened along the way, whether talking about gardening on local radio station BBC 3CR, planting up displays for the Wildlife Trust at Chelsea or Hampton Court and many roles in Garden Centres. I am always continuing to learn about the world of plants, a passion everyone should enjoy.

Here at Great Amwell, we love sharing Chris's wealth of knowledge gained through years of experience. It's a pleasure to listen and learn from him, teaching us all about the joys of growing plants.
