No Dig Gardening — Beverly Johannson

Beverley Johansson is not your typical farmer! She started growing vegetables at the age of 60, with no prior gardening experience. Beverley grew up in the UK and Australia, studied Psychology at London University and took her MBA at Harvard Business School. She worked at Esso Petroleum in the UK and ran her own headhunting company in Sweden. In 2017, she and her husband moved to a small town north of Stockholm, Sweden, where they decided to learn about growing vegetables. They run a 500 sq m vegetable garden, have egg laying chickens and are now self-sufficient in fruit, vegetables and eggs.
