Overview
About Me
Hello, I'm Glow. Here is a bit about me:
I was involved with a volunteer lead community project in 2014-16 in my hometown of London which was very life changing for me. The project involved transforming a derelict nursery and greenhouses into a beautiful and functioning community garden. We had bicycle repair workshops; grew vegetables, herbs and fruits; implemented Permaculture methods; had music jams, art exhibitions, and many other projects and input from many different individuals over the years we were running.
Unfortunately due to it's prime estate location, the land was sold after several years of our project.
Before that, in my early twenties, I had lived in China for a year teaching English, and in Spain for three months.
Then I decided to set up my own small gardening company, providing an organic gardening service in my local area. It's been a huge learning curve and allowed me to grow in many ways.
For the past 8 years I have been doing this, whilst being blessed with the freedom to travel during the winter months.
My goal is to start a project, a land based ecological Permaculture project, which will champion human and environmental rights that will be open to all displaced peoples of the world.
