David Hobson has digital ink stains on his green thumb and lives in Waterloo, Ontario, Canada where he loves to watch things grow — his children, his garden, his friends, and his compost heap (which should eventually shrink). David was born and raised in Yorkshire, England, but has made Canada his home. A humorist, storyteller, and photographer, he is a popular speaker at horticultural societies and gardening clubs, where he shares the humour and passion of a lifelong gardener.
