In 2016 I got fired from my job for being pregnant, I’ve spent the last 5 years building my confidence back up after hitting rock bottom. This year I took an RHS gardening course and TODAY I gained my first client. I am OFFICIALLY a self employed gardener! Can you believe it?

My customer asked me if I could redistribute some of her outdoor succulents to some cracks in her rockery like her dad used to. I gave it a go and I actually love it! Hopefully they survive 😂

Well, this week’s weather has been incredibly challenging for a self-employed gardener, but I’m also glad I have the choice of whether I get soaking wet or not! Lol ☔️

Pretty much every nature organisation, 350 of them, tens of thousands of scientists, conservationists and growers march through London to tell the UK the manifestos are woefully inadequate to protect nature and us. Unprecedented. @BBCNews … nothing 👀
