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.
In addition to writing two humorous
gardening books, "Soiled Reputations"
and "Diary of a Passionate Gardener,
for twenty-two years he has been the
weekly garden columnist for The
Waterloo Region Record. His articles
have also appeared in Garden Making
magazine, Grand magazine, Canadian
Gardening magazine, and most recently
the Farmers Almanac Garden Guide.

The Garden Humour Website first went
online in January 1998, making it ancient
in internet terms. Website technology may
have changed and improved, but this site
remains as it was created -- frames, drop
down menus, and clunky html code. It truly
is a heritage website.
