Over past years I've given hundreds of illustrated talks (frequently via Zoom) to gardening groups up and down the country as well as speaking on cruise holidays and at live events like Gardeners' World Live. As a keen photographer, my talks are illustrated with beautiful plant and garden pictures and videos, many taken in my own Peterborough garden.

I have been a leading gardening journalist in the UK for over 40 years, successfully launching and editing BBC Gardeners' World Magazine for 22 of these. I now run my own company, Adam Pasco Media, as a writer and content provider, photographer, lecturer, and consultant to clients in the gardening industry. In addition to BBC Gardeners’ World, I have been Editor of Garden News, Garden Answers, BBC Easy Gardening and Waitrose Garden magazine.

I have twice been crowned 'Editor of the Year' by the British Society of Magazine Editors, and been awarded 'Practical Journalist of the Year' by the Garden Media Guild.

I've written a gardening column for The Daily Telegraph, and wrote and edited 'The Collins Complete Garden Manual', as well as contributions to many other books, magazines and web sites.

I've made guest appearances on Gardeners' World and Gardeners' Question Time, and over the years worked alongside a host of leading gardening celebrities on television, at events and gardening cruises including Alan Titchmarsh, Carol Klein, Monty Don, Geoff Hamilton, Rachel de Thame, Joe Swift, and a host of others.

Apart from gardening I'm in a ukulele band, play guitar, and love cooking and photography.
