About Terry Smith

Hi, I’m Terry Smith. I love gardening and in this website you can find some amazing tips. One of my keenest inspirations was Charlie Dimmock on Ground Force. When I did my NCA in agriculture in 1975 it sent me down a path of gardening and sustainability that I am very content with.This program was a platform for me. It showed me how you could make big changes quickly for the good.

From that little program I continued my path toward a love of gardening and recommend you learn about gardening at every opportunity. In my website you’ll find plenty of tips and ideas that will help you improve the way you use your garden and the enjoyment you can achieve from it.

If you would like to learn more about us or contact me then please do not hesitate to do so.

Yours Sincerely Terry
