More than a memoir. A lifetime of gardening inspiration.

Well-known and celebrated as a cookery writer and presenter, in My Gardening Life Mary Berry shares her second great love: gardening. From a passion that was sparked in her childhood as she helped her father in their vegetable patch, gardening has become a source of great joy to Mary.

In this deeply personal account, she reveals all that she has learned through a lifetime of growing, including:
  • The gardens she has loved and tended
  • The plants she loves to grow
  • The people who have inspired and influenced her
  • How she gardens through each season
  • What gardening means to her

Full of anecdotes, pearls of wisdom, and beautiful photos of Mary’s own garden, My Gardening Life is a unique memoir told through the gardens Mary has loved. As she says, “In another life, I may have been a gardener.”
Dame Mary Berry is the nation's favourite baker and author of over 70 books, including the bestselling Mary Berry Cooks, Simple Comforts, Mary Berry's Baking Bible and Mary 90. She was the much-loved judge on the BBC's The Great British Bake Off and has been teaching the nation to cook for over four decades.

Cordon Bleu trained in Paris, Mary began her career as a magazine cookery editor before publishing her first cookery book in 1966. Mary is also an AGA expert and taught AGA masterclasses for many years from her home with Lucy Young.

In 2009 Mary was awarded the highly coveted Guild of Food Writers Lifetime Achievement Award and in 2012 she was made a CBE in the Queen's Birthday Honours list. View titles by Mary Berry
