  • Monty Don is my Hall Pass

    I say this facetiously, though my husband thinks so. There are so many wonderful gardeners who feature prominently in this show (Frances, Alan, Carol, Adam, etc), but no gardener has influenced me more than Monty. Even more than his raw handsomeness and ASMR voice, I appreciate how much joy in my life he has helped me discover.

  • Hopeful and helpful

    I really enjoyed the recent episode on gardening in a small space. One of the things I like about this podcast is that is addresses modern issues such as young people have less and less access to garden space, as well the ecological impact of pesticides, peat, and plastic. However the hosts always do this from a place of learning and hope rather than pessimism - it is one of those podcasts where no matter the topic you come away with inspiration rather than despondency.

Q: How do you keep that motivation going?
It's not about motivation, it's about habit forming. Building habits is more effective than relying on motivation alone.
Renovating a garden, with Nick Bailey
Q: How would you set about getting the balance right between making something that's a beautiful design, but also that's going to be fully functional?
