Science-trained and with a teaching diploma, I have combined my passion for sustainable gardening with my education background and have run hundreds of presentations and workshops since starting My Green Garden in 2011. Of course, once you start growing food, you start to look at preserving it. Running workshops for community organisations and also from my own home, where people can enjoy the experience by getting hands-on, is one of my favourite things to do.

As a woman born of Italian immigrants, I was immersed in the annual preserving rituals that I now enjoy with my own children, our friends and their friends. One important one was the making of the tomato passata sauce, which took the better part of a whole day. We continue this tradition annually and invite guests to come along and get involved in the whole process in a very authentic way. Recently, I was asked to submit an article to Pip magazine to describe the process and its importance in our family life. Earlier, my garden was featured in an article about backyard produce gardening.
