In A Wilder Way, trained horticulturalist and regenerative grower Poppy Okotcha reflects on her ever-changing Devon garden, weaving stories from her own life and folktales from her English and Nigerian heritage into a month-by-month exploration of the joys and challenges of the gardening year. Okotcha gives practical advice on gardening tasks from making compost and worm tea, to producing flowers, fruits and vegetables, to foraging and creating delicious seasonal recipes and contemplates what gardening can bring us: the mundane, the magical, the inspiring. Both memoir and practical guide, A Wilder Way celebrates the joys that even the smallest patch of ground can provide, the pleasures of engaging with the natural world, and how important this is for our emotional and physical well-being. Whatever the size or type of growing space, A Wilder Way will appeal to both experienced and novice gardeners. Former St Johns Marlborough student Okotcha is passionate about inspiring engagement with and connection to the natural world. She has been featured on BBC2s Gardeners World and is a regular contributor to the RHS podcast.
