Poppy Okotcha: A Wilder Way

This week, we’re digging deep – culturally and politically - into
our connection with the land in Poppy Okotcha’s A Wilder Way, how
gardens grow us.


Poppy is this year’s winner of the Jane Grigson Trust Sous
Chef Award for New Food Writers for her memoir – and very
practical handbook – about putting down roots and growing a
garden while reconnecting with Mother Earth’s infinite power to
restore life.


Her beautiful book is a wonderful wake up call to remind us of
what’s under our feet, threaded through with fables and folklore
from her Nigerian Igbo and British cultures. 


Pop over to Gilly's Substack for Extra Bites of Poppy.
