About

Jo Wood

I never did things the conventional way. When I was modelling in the '70s, nobody was talking about organic living but I was already growing my own vegetables and questioning what we were putting on our skin.

Then came the rock 'n' roll years. As wife to Ronnie Wood, I travelled the world, raised my children backstage, and lived a life most people only read about. It was extraordinary, chaotic, and beautiful, and it taught me more about resilience than anything else ever could.

When that chapter ended, I didn't fall apart. I reinvented myself. I launched Jo Wood Organics, became a passionate advocate for sustainable living, and discovered that the best years of my life were still ahead of me.

Today, I'm a mother, grandmother, author, entrepreneur, and wellness pioneer. I believe in the power of nature, the importance of honesty, and the absolute necessity of a good laugh. This site is my corner of the internet, a place where I share everything I've learned about living well, loving honestly, and never, ever giving up.

Welcome to my world. Pull up a chair. x
