Hi!
I’m all about passion and immense sensitivity towards beauty and nature, also about passing it on to anyone who wants to join me in creating eco-friendlier and more sustainable environment and better world around us.
GARDENS & ME
My History
After completing 5 years National Diploma in Horticulture course in Poland, I was awarded an educational grant to study Professional Gardening and Garden History in England.
I was lucky enough to study and gain working experience from the very best organic Head Gardeners and lecturers in England. Amongst the fines of my early education placements were two flagship gardens of Henry Doubleday Research Association (now Garden Organic UK) and private residence of TRH The Prince of Wales at Highgrove, Gloucestershire, UK. After that I worked in some amazing historical organic gardens in Eire on the west coast of County Cork.
Today I share my life between Poland and England, I live and work in both countries. Most of winters I spend designing organic, naturalistic gardens from my home in Derbyshire and in summer I teach in show my Organic Show Gardens in the north polish region of Kashubia.
