Sophie McKay

Sophie McKay is an emerging author in the field of gardening, permaculture and sustainability. Her work explores self-sufficiency, foraging, food forestry, and food preservation, with a view to helping readers gain independence and help repair the planet little by little. With extensive experience in practicing the permaculture method, she is certain that the answer to real change lies in the earth, and that with the right insight, anyone is able to grow their own food. She is passionate about helping others become less dependent on the economy and strives to make her own family a little more independent every day. Her love of food begins in the ground and ends with the happy faces around the dinner table. She is an avid cook, always looking for new ways to bring out the natural flavors of her homegrown produce and preserve her bounty for the off-season. Sophie lives in the countryside with her husband, her two children, and her beloved rescue cat, who show her every day what’s truly important in life.
