We Have Written a Book!

We have wanted to write about this for the longest time and now the time is here, it’s hard to know what to say except - eeekkk - we have written a book!!!

It’s called The Edible Flower: A Modern Guide to Growing, Cooking and Eating Edible Flowers and will be published by Laurence King Publishing. Although the physical book won’t be released until 9th March 2023, in the crazy world of publishing, you can already pre-order from a range of outlets including bookshop.org - don’t worry we will remind you again!

Probably many, many times!

Jo and I wrote it together and because it is so seasonally linked to when flowers were in bloom in our garden we did the food styling and photoshoots as we wrote it in 2021. The amazing photography is by our friend and food photographer extraordinaire Sharon Cosgrove Photography.

I’m so proud of it - it’s full of recipes that are delicious, seasonal and filled with flowers, plus amazing advice on creating a garden that is beautiful and productive.

If you want to read the full press release I’ve linked it here.

We’ve both learned so much through this process - we knew nothing!

A million thanks to the fabulous Juliet Pickering from Blakefried Mann Literary Agency for keeping us right, and everyone at Laurence King Publishing especially Katherine Pitt and Elen Jones for guiding us first time authors through the process, mostly painlessly. And for correcting our spelling mistakes and making sure the book looked fabulous!

Bring on March 2023!
