Lesley has had a life long passion for gardening for wildlife and has been increasingly interested in creating regenerative growing systems. Having recently completed the Level 4 in Regenerative Land based Systems at the Apricot Centre, she's keen to develop this knowledge particularly relating it to smaller scale growing systems. She has an allotment scale forest and foraging garden, with an emphasis on perennial plants for resilience, where she applies and shares her learning by promoting it as a demonstration plot for the local community.
