Martin Fish is a professional gardener, writer, and broadcaster with more than 30 years in the industry. He went into horticulture as an apprentice in the Newark Parks Department before full-time training in horticulture at Brackenhust College, Southwell. He is a prolific writer on all things horticultural, with television and radio credits to his name including “Simply Gardening” for ITV as well as programmes for BBC television and radio. He is a past President of the North of England Horticultural Society and a past Director of the Harrogate Flower Shows.
