What really happened to Roger Cook from This Old House

Roger Cook's most well-known role in the US is as an anchor of the PBS home remodeling program, This Old House. One of the longest-running television programs on PBS is This Old House, which debuted in 1979.

Numerous contractors have come and gone from the show. Nevertheless, not many of them are as popular as Roger Cook, whose work remained on the show for more than 30 years.

Roger didn't come from a landscape or gardening background. Neither his father has a farm nor was he a gardener himself. But the young man had a serious passion for it. The OG landscaping legend was born back in 1955 in Massachusetts, USA, and while growing up, he fell in love with gardening.
