Our 2020 vision for a healthIER wealthIER Rossendale

We have a Patron!

Incredible Edible Rossendale are delighted to confirm that Christine Walkden has agreed to become our Patron offering her support to our project

We are sure you will recognise Christine from her appearances on BBC's Gardeners World, Gardeners Diary and resident gardening expert on The One Show. She has also had two series of Christine's Garden.

Christine was born in nearby Rishton and trained at the Lancashire College of Agriculture and then worked at two experimental horticultural stations, before moving to The Royal Botanic Gardens Kew based at Wakehurst Place, where she looked after the growing side of the seed physiology unit. After several more jobs she undertook a career change and became a freelance horticulturist, lecturing nationally and internationally.
