About
After 25 years, in 2017 Margaret Bennet-Alder, creator of the much-loved Toronto Gardener’s Journal & Source Book, decided to transfer her labour of love to a new generation of gardeners.
A new beginning
Read Margaret’s story here. She chose to pass the reins to Helen Battersby and Sarah Battersby, the sisters who have collaborated since 2006 on the award-winning blog Toronto Gardens.
In 2019, the Toronto Gardener’s Journal once again includes all the things its current and soon-to-be fans will love. This year “those Battersby girls” have stepped it up by completely updating the Gardener’s Journal Source Book garden directory.
PLUS, we’ll also be offering the Source Book section as a separate ebook with active weblinks. So finding garden-related help and info can be a click away.
We hope that both help you record and enjoy many happy times in your garden!
