LITTLE WILD LIBRARY
Simple things to do with the plants around you
September 2025 saw publication (Verbena) of three new titles in this lovely little series. They follow on from the success of the first three (Nettle, Dandelion, Clover). Elder, Wild Rose and Hawthorn have an autumnal feel and are packed with recipes, folklore and botanical information. Lovely illustrations and photographs throughout. They were a delight to write and will, hopefully, be a delight to read!
Following a career as a magazine editor, I now live in the depths of rural Herefordshire where I write books, magazine features about homes, gardens and UK travel, and do a lot of gardening, animal husbandry and orchard maintenance. The move to Herefordshire has also awakened my interest in the mythic landscape, earth energies, folklore and traditional customs, which increasingly inform my writing.
