Member since: Aug 08 | Years gardening: 7 Organic gardener

I’m Phillippa. I’m thirty two. I live on the NSW Central Coast with my husband and two babies. We have a big backyard where we grow all manner of fruit and vegetables. I’m a teacher, working part time at a local public primary school. I garden, read, cook, watch movies and listen to 702 ABC radio. I love farmers markets. I’m interested in permaculture, organics and sustainability. I’m frustrated by Dollarweed.

I love to grow

Vegies, fruit and herbs. I like growing things to eat.

Apart from gardening, all I manage to squeeze in around caring for two babies is a bit of cooking and some reading.
