Emily O'Rourke is an organic grower from North Yorkshire, now settled at Lochhill to start her own market garden — a long-held dream of living and growing on Scottish land. Her journey began in the rainforests of Costa Rica, where she felt called to work with soil, seeds and trees. Since then she has immersed herself in organic horticulture, developing a love for growing vegetables, flowers and medicinal herbs, alongside her holistic life as a yoga teacher. Previous roles have taught her the value, risks and rewards of commercial growing, and she's just the right person to be starting this project at Lochhill's agroecological farm.
