Discover a new way of gardening hand in hand with nature to create a beautiful, wildlife-friendly space Welcome to another way of being- one where the gardener and nature work hand in hand to create something beautiful and sustainable Carol Bruce has spent over 20 years considering how we relate to nature and the implications this has for gardening. Driven to find a balance between a wild and cultivated environment, she developed a method that brings both together in a holistic system, which has resulted in a garden of otherworldly beauty. A self-taught gardener, Carol has designed a spectacular garden from scratch, which harnesses self-sowing and natural selection to thrive free from irrigation, pesticides, and fertilizer. She now shares her knowledge, proven techniques, and planting schemes to give others a shortcut to transforming their own space - whether starting from a blank canvas or a garden to adapt. In Nature's Slipstream recounts the world through her eyes and acts as a personal gardening tutor so that you too can achieve a beautiful, manageable garden that is in balance with nature.

About the Author

Born in suburban South East England in 1969, Carol Bruce grew up with an unshakeable desire to live in the woods, and an innate drive to examine the forces that stand between us and our connection to nature. After studying economics at the University of Cambridge, she began methodically exploring new ways of relating to the natural world that can bring sustainability and artistry onto the same page, resulting in the creation of a garden and a philosophy that are a fusion of both. She opens her award-winning garden at Old Bladbean Stud for charity through the National Garden Scheme, and shares the garden's progress through the seasons via Facebook. Carol makes nature-inspired jewellery for a living, which is marketed through her Etsy shop Reweaving the Rainbow, and she spends all her spare time peacefully walking in the woods.
