Your teacher: Karen Sutherland has spent her life in the garden, from an 8 year old in her vegie patch to training at Ceres, Melbourne Zoological Gardens, an Associate Diploma in Applied Science from Melbourne University (Burnley), and a Permaculture Design Certificate with Bill Mollison. She has run her own horticultural business for 35 years and 12 years ago shifted her focus to edible plants as ‘Edible Eden Design’.
