Pippa Chapman has been gardening for over 30 years.
In 2007 she left her job as Head Gardener on a private estate, to take a year-long practical apprenticeship at RHS Harlow Carr.
She was introduced to forest gardening and permaculture and in 2010 set up a sustainable gardening business with her husband.
She grows a wide variety of fruits, flowers, herbs and annual and perennial vegetables in her small backyard, creating a beautiful, edible and wildlife friendly space.

The Plant Lover’s Backyard Forest Garden
Grow your own beautiful multilayered food forest in your own backyard.
Pippa explains how to create multiple layers on a small-scale to maximise your growing area, using polycultures and guilds for healthy, low-maintenance food. She shares how to use perennials for structure and for year-round food, and how to incorporate flowers for beauty, wildlife and for the kitchen.
