With wit and common sense, Jane Edmanson has motivated generations of Australians to go outside and get gardening. Jane believes that connecting with nature through a daily dose of gardening is an antidote to the toxic side effects of our modern lives.
As the only presenter who’s been with the ABC’s Gardening Australia television program since its inception in 1990, Jane has taught countless Australians how to grow food sustainably, nurture native ecosystems and solve common gardening problems.
Jane has shared her expertise with local gardening clubs, schools and environmental groups by donating thousands of hours to the community and delivering talks across Australia. As the author and co-author of several gardening books, she’s also inspired a more environmentally conscious Australia and created networks of gardeners trained in sustainable practices.
Jane is committed to supporting grassroots gardeners and bringing Australia together as a gardening community across all cultures, generations and socio-economic groups.
