About

I have always loved spending time in nature, whether bumbling in woods, paddling in burns, cycling or climbing munros. I first conceptualised my deep love and connection to nature whilst studying Ecopsychology in an MSc at the Centre Human Ecology (CHE) in Edinburgh in 2003-05. My thesis on Ecovillages and Planning Permission was awarded a distinction. I studied the Permaculture Design Course in 2005 in Kilmartin with Ed Tyler (an amazing and inspiring nature observer), and in 2006 set up an outdoor children and parents’ play-group called ‘Nurture in Nature’ which is still going strong (meeting twice a week) - featured in the Permaculture Magazine (PM73). In 2010 I completed a Permaculture Training of Teachers course with Designed Visions, and in January 2011 I completed my Diploma in Applied Permaculture Design.

I have been teaching permaculture since 2009 including many full design courses. From 2005-12 I lived in Glasgow, including leading permaculture education with children from the local schools and nurseries in Castlemilk (through Urban Roots a local environmental charity).

In 2012 I moved to Gatehouse-of-Fleet in Galloway, where I continue to teach permaculture to adults (in PDCs) and children. Completed my Forest Schools Leader training, I now work with kids both within school hours, and after school leading both nature connection in the woods and gardening in the school grounds.

I volunteer and work for Permaculture Scotland (been on the Permaculture Scotland Working Group since it re-started in 2009 - organising events including the ), coordinating the ScotLAND network, organising events (including gathering of 200 people at Comrie Croft in 2014) and more.

Since 2014 I have been working on the Children in Permaculture European project , which has been full of fun, rewards, challenges and creative solutions, including receiving Erasmus+ funding (100 page application!!!), representing two partners - Gatehouse School and the Permaculture Association. In 2018, I published a book entitled 'Earth Care, People Care and Fair Share in Education: the Children in Permaculture Manual'.

I have a fun, informative, participatory teaching style with lots of diversity in methodologies.
