InStyle Magazine Award for The Edible Balcony

After spending the past few years elbow deep in compost and manure, I never imagined my balcony veggie patch would garner me a 'style' award.

Never underestimate where your garden can take you.

On Tuesday night I was awarded the Instyle Magazine's Women of Style Lifestyle award during a glittering ceremony at Carriageworks in Sydney.

It was completely unexpected since the other nominees in my category were kitchen queen Donna Hay and fitness guru Michelle Bridges!

Thank you to InStyle Magazine for recognising the grow-your-own-food movement and the important contribution it can play in helping all of us lead a more balanced lifestyle.
