Emma Cooper is a freelance writer, photographer and podcaster. An active organic gardener, Emma lives in Oxfordshire with three plastic compost bins, two wormeries and a pair of bokashi bins. There used to be chickens, too, but they have all moved on to pastures new.
Emma loves making compost and growing edible & useful plants in an environmentally-friendly way. Her first book, 'The Alternative Kitchen Garden: An A to Z', covers a wide range of topics from green gardening techniques to unusual edible plants and was published by Permanent Publications in 2009. Emma's second book, 'The Allotment Pocket Bible', was published by Crimson in June 2011.
For the last couple of months I have been really good and spent virtually nothing on the garden or on stuff generally.
This morning I fell off the wagon when I found out that T&M are selling goji berry plants. Anyone who’s not as much of an edible plant geek as I am will no doubt be non-plussed, but goji berries are the latest ‘superfood’. Not that I’m bothered about that; I just like unusual plants.
