ThinkinGardens
– is exploring a new way of thinking about, and discussing, gardens.
The mission statement sets out the aims of thinkinGardens. The manifesto sets out the agenda for change, and asks the reader to contribute to the debate.
If anyone with experience would volunteer to offer a few hours a week to organisation and administration I would happily, with their assistance, run some events and suppers. Sadly, I am unable to pay for this service.
Meanwhile I invite you to explore the thinkinGardens article index and join in the discussions that are already shaping the gardens of the future.
Anne Wareham, editor.
I am a garden writer for newspapers and garden magazines, and editor of the website thinkinGardens.
I appeared on television as a judge in the series ‘Britain’s Best Home and Garden’ on Channel 5 and Tim Richardson included me in his list of most influential British gardeners in the Telegraph.
I have been campaigning for the past thirty years for a renaissance in British gardens, focusing on encouraging serious reviews of gardens and on returning gardens to their place amongst the fine arts in British culture.
My first book, The Bad Tempered Gardener was published in May 2011 by Frances Lincoln and has been described by the Daily Mail as a ‘best seller’. I’m looking forward to the royalties which convince me of that…
My second came out in April 2015: Outwitting Squirrels, and IS a best seller. Let’s hope The Deckchair Gardener will be too.
I have a garden blog and I am generally a thorn in the flesh of the garden world.
