We were extremely saddened to hear about the loss of Joe Maiden. Joe had been a great supporter of our project since the beginning and we were honoured to have him come and inspire us in the past and at the start of this growing season. He didn’t have to come and deliver this training but he did and shared not only his vast knowledge and experience, but also his passion and personal memories, drawing everyone into his world.
Many of our Harehills growers have plants grown by Joe in their gardens from this workshop. We like to think the passion of Joe will in this way spread from neighbour to neighbour. Joe’ front garden design for his kitchen garden won a gold award
We send our sympathies to Betty and family, as well as Tim and the team at Tim and Joe at BBC radio Leeds.
Thank you Joe, we will miss you but the memory of you and what you stood for will live on
