LONGLISTED FOR THE WAINWRIGHT PRIZE FOR NATURE WRITING
A BOOK OF THE YEAR FOR THE INDEPENDENT, STYLIST, RHS, GARDENS ILLUSTRATED and more
Women have always gardened, but our stories have been buried with our work. Alice Vincent is on a quest to change that: to understand what encourages women to go out, work the soil, plant seeds and nurture them, even when so many other responsibilities sit upon their shoulders. To recover the histories that have been lost among the soil and to understand women's lives, their gardens and what the ground has offered them.
Alice Vincent is a journalist and the author of three books, including Why Women Grow and Rootbound: Rewilding a Life, both longlisted for the Wainwright Prize and named as a 'Book of the Year' by the Financial Times, Independent, Stylist and others. A self-taught gardener, Alice is a columnist for the Guardian and Gardens Illustrated and writes for titles including the Sunday Times, Observer, Vogue, New Statesman and Telegraph. She writes savour, a newsletter dedicated to the delicious things in life, and hosts the Why Women Grow and In Haste podcasts. She lives in South London.
