Growing up in an Italian family, for Fabian Capomolla, Sunday lunch would always consist of loud arguments, pasta, veggies from the garden, and would finish with an espresso and a selection of ripe fruit from the backyard orchard.
Starting off in advertising before taking the leap to fulfil his dream of helping people grow food, Fabian Capomolla co-founded Little Veggie Patch Co. and now has his own completely edible backyard in Melbourne. He is the author, with Mat Pember, of The Little Veggie Patch Co. (2011), The Little Veggie Patch Co.'s Guide to Backyard Farming (2012) and 1-Minute Gardener (2014).
Fabian lives in Melbourne with his wife, Beck, and their kids, Jack and Olive.
