About Growing Greener Roots
We are two of three sisters, Kate and Ginny, documenting the highs and lows of our learnings from our individual journeys into growing — using as many sustainable practices as possible along the way.
One of us has over a decade of experience and ample space to create a dream vegetable and flower garden in the countryside. The other has zero experience, with very little space in a London terraced house, but a nagging curiosity (and a growing collection of plants).
Despite the contrast, we’re both equally excited to see what we can create within our own spaces — and to bring you along for the ride!
Our shared, and often very different experiences have shown us that no matter what space you have, growing can be both exciting and incredibly rewarding. It doesn’t have to be perfect, or complicated — it just has to start somewhere.
We hope to inspire those who are just beginning, offer practical ideas for any seasoned gardeners, and share an honest account of what it looks like to learn, adapt, and grow over time.
We believe growing can be for everyone
01
How ever much space you have: whether you have a balcony or a field, there are ways that you can grow
03
That is achievable on any budget: yes costs can add up, but there are clever ways you can save
02
Whatever your level of experience: all you need is an interest in learning
04
While being mindful of the environment: it literally does not have to cost the earth
