Tamsin Westhorpe is well known as an editor, garden writer and lecturer. However, she prefers to be known as a gardener. Throughout her 25 year horticultural career she has focused on the practicalities of gardening. She is proud to say that she’s been a parks gardener and green keeper and is very at home at the potting bench.
Her written work has been featured in many national publications including Gardeners’ World, Gardens Illustrated, Amateur Gardening and The Telegraph. She was previously Editor of The English Garden magazine and lecturer at Kingston Maurwood College in Dorset.
She started her gardening career at the age of 16 working for her great uncle John Treasure of Burford House Gardens in Worcestershire. Alongside her freelance work and being a mother Tamsin runs Stockton Bury Gardens in Herefordshire with her Uncles and is currently training to be an RHS judge.
Her passion is to demystify gardening and encourage people to have jolly good fun in their garden.
