Doug Green is an acclaimed garden author and retired specialist nurseryman who was in the nursery and greenhouse business most of his working life. Doug jokingly states that he “learned a little bit about plants in the process.” Over the years, his gardens have included literally hundreds of varieties of vegetables including nearly fifty varieties of heritage tomatoes he grew for seed collecting for his nursery. Doug has written over 30 gardening books and ebooks, including the award-winning Garden Wisdom. Doug now writes for his website (douggreensgarden.com) and whatever else catches his fancy, and generally has as much fun as possible. Green lives, gardens, and writes from an island in the 1000 Islands region of Lake Ontario where he and his partner (an acknowledged heirloom plant expert) are developing a garden together named “Someday” because this is the garden they both wanted to have “someday.”
