Who and what is Salisbury Grange?

Some reflections on starting a new business.

This is what my gardens look like.

Give me spots on my apples, but leave me the birds and the bees.

I planted my first seed at the age of 29.

Three simple things I do.

I challenged myself to grow flowers for birthdays, Mother’s Day, Christmas and this is what I learned.

Are all potting mixes made equal. In a word, no.

The bees, butterflies, dragonflies, wasps and hoverflies have been visiting my bee garden.

The simple way.

I know, because I’ve done it all myself!

The first thing to know is, planting seeds is so easy.

It’s hard to believe that a gnarled tuber grows into a stunning dahlia.

My brother Fergus was the gardening surprise packet of 2020.

Spurred on by a little competition, Zoe grew the most stunning zinnias over summer.

The first and the best, the Speedy clan aced The Bee Project on their first go.

Lou started growing in Covid and kept going.
