About the Host
Maureen Little has been growing things, on and off, throughout her life – and she kept bees for part of the time.
She started knee-high to a grasshopper helping her Dad on his market garden in Sussex and, later in her career, after becoming a professional garden designer, and writing several gardening books she ended up owning and running her own plant centre specialising in bee, and other pollinator-friendly plants and culinary herbs. She also had an apiary at the plant centre.
Gardening-wise, she now concentrates on writing, and giving talks and demonstrations to groups and societies. She is a full member of both the Garden Media Guild and Society of Authors.
