Meet the grower
I’m Simon Adams—an organic grower, author and creator of Diary of an Organic Grower and the Your Growing Companion app. I’ve spent more than 40 years growing food, learning from both successes and failures, and adapting to changing conditions.
I’ve worked with Garden Organic and am a member of the Chartered Institute of Horticulture. Everything I share is rooted in practical experience and a belief in working with nature, without damaging ourselves or the environment.
