About the Author
John Harris is the founder of PearTree, a treehouse company. He has had a fascination with treehouses since he was a child. His first one built by his father from a pallet and packing case is still fondly remembered. This passion has continued into his adult life, even honeymooning in a tree house in Malaysia. John built his first full scale treehouse 9 years ago for his own children, which is still well used. His sons treehouse caused so much interest from friends and visitors, that it prompted John to test the response from others by placing a very small advertisement in House & Gardens. Not expecting to receive any real enquiries he was astounded when some 300 people jammed his answerphone and letterbox. Seeing the enormous potential in the market, the amateur turned professional with the creation of PearTree. Over the past three years the business has thrived, with demand stretching across Europe from Peterhead in the North of Scotland through to St. Tropez in the South of France.
