Garden Folk was born in March 2023 by Ally Phillimoore and Gemma Willis. Two women with no magazine experience but a passion for sharing gardening with the world. It was began from an idea of creating a space for real gardeners to share honest stories and inspire others to get growing.
In August 2023 Gemma left the magazine to pursue new adventures. Ally continued to run the magazine and added two new faces to the team: Anjee Harrison and Ellen Mary Webster. Both had been part of the journey since the start and were passionate about Garden Folk!
In 2024, we celebrated our 1 year anniversary builta website and rebranded to what Garden Folk is today. Ally, Anjee and Ellen kept building the magazine. After a year of dedicated passion to the magazine Ellen decided to go onto new and exciting adventures in August 2024.
Today we are a 2 woman band of Ally and Anjee.
Here at GardenFolk Mag we are all about bringing the gardening community together. We want to inspire others to start growing and celebrate gardening from all walks of life. We are an online magazine, meaning we can reach so many more people and give everyone access to great growing information.
