Inspiring home grown food adventures

Sarflowerportrait.jpg

Sarah is the founder and head gardener of Popes Produce.

She comes from a background of visual arts, the retailing of organic food and hospitality. These skills are readily blended to encourage people to enjoy fresh happy food.

At its core, Popes Produce is a small urban market garden tucked away in a family backyard demonstrating small scale food production.

 Emphasis is placed on how to nurture the edible garden and biodiversity required to nourish us, whilst enjoying the ride and having fun.

Pretty much active edible creative play.
