Since the publication of her first book The Cutting Garden Sarah has led the way over the last two and a half decades in introducing a new kind of productive gardening which fuses intense colour, elegance and do-ability, bridging all kinds of gardening from dark rich dahlia glories to subtler smoky modern colours of poppies, roses, sweet peas, and all kinds of vegetable deliciousness. She is a teacher, broadcaster, has a popular gardening podcast Grow, Cook, Eat, Arrange with colleague Arthur Parkinson and runs a mail order plant nursery, (with 500,000 customers). She is also the author of many books and is currently working on a book on colour. sarahraven.com / @srkitchengarden
