Lee Senior

Lee Senior is an experienced horticultural writer, RHS Yorkshire in Bloom judge and horticultural consultant. He has also had an allotment for over 30 years, obtained after attending Horticultural College and publishes tips at his Instagram page @lee_senior_gardening. “My gardening hero is Geoff Hamilton” says Lee. “It was Geoff who convinced me that you didn’t have to spray everything that moved in the garden. Small-scale food growing is my passion. Nothing beats the flavour and satisfaction of growing your own food. You simply cannot buy the same quality and freshness. Everyone can have a go at growing something, no matter where they live and it is great to see how growing food in containers is taking off now.” When he's not writing for the gardening press, Lee leads a team, sustainably managing a five acre garden in the North of England. Lee’s website is: https://allotmentsandgreenspaces.wordpress.com. You can email him directly at: allotmentsguru@gmail.com. Away from horticulture, Lee is a keen walker and he has written a number of successful walking books which are available at his online bookstore, Walking in the Aire.
