About the author

Peter Shepperd is in his 40s and whose interest in gardening started when he decided to give his family access to fresh, homegrown and organic food.

Peter has been studying new gardening approaches to diversify his experience and skillset. His experimentation has allowed him to figure out what works and what definitely doesn't.

He disagrees with the use of pesticides and chemicals. He has decided to produce this series of books to cover all aspects of growing, gardening and organic sustainability.

Peter has spent over a decade experimenting with different gardening techniques and perfecting his approach to growing fruits, vegetables, herbs and other plants. Not only this, but he has learnt how to make the most of each part of the food that he grows.

Teaching others has become his passion as some affordable, and straightforward practices have entirely transformed how his family gets access to healthy, delicious, nutritious and affordable food. This is what Peter wants to share with the world and help to slowly transition more and more people away from the often tasteless vegetables that are purchased in supermarkets and are heavily reliant on the use of chemicals that damage the environment, to homegrown organic healthy produce that is more than the sum of its success because it has helped develop the person that has produced it too.

Peter lives with his family near Windsor in England.
