I was born into a working class family, brought up in the largest council estate in Europe; Birchwood in Lincoln, before moving to different council estate in Barnstaple, after my parents separated. |
"I want Gardens Of Eden to use man made ecosystems to help provide a sustainable solution to some of today’s contemporary issues." Zac Harris |
"I studied horticulture because I loved it, now I want to use it to have some kind positive impact. My experiences have led me to have a huge interest in design and exotic gardens but also food security, socioeconomic inequality and environmental sustainability. By creating Edible Landscapes we provide a free and sustainable food source. By designing gardens ecologically we provide food and habitats for wildlife."
