Three things with Claudia Chan Shaw: ‘Pull out a Bic four-colour pen in a meeting and it’s a real icebreaker’ Keeping seeds on hand means I can produce bountiful crops in just a few months in summer if I have water and good soil. And having worked with fire and flood affected communities of gardeners who lost their own seeds in these natural disasters, I know that having my seed box would give me hope – so I can begin again and sow new life.
While I loved the garden I created, it was the third garden I had created from scratch, and I think I still have another big, audacious project left in me. So, as my “gap” year draws to a close and I start the hunt for the next property, the thing I do miss is the soil I created.
