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.
