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.
The 2018 Toronto Gardener’s Journal includes all the things its current and soon-to-be fans will love – and stay tuned with “those Battersby girls” for what’s to come in future editions.
We hope it helps you record many happy times in your garden!
