This podcast makes me think. It expands my ideas about who gardeners are, what gardening is, and why we garden. I love the distinct interview styles Jennifer, Ben, and Abra bring to the show, and I glean wisdom and inspiration from each guest. In these fractious times, it’s a delight to immerse myself in conversations about a love so many of us hold in common. Thank you, Cultivating Place.
Refreshing content and finally a host that allows their guests to speak without undue interruption. No background music just a solid well presented podcast. Loving it!
More on big trees would be so welcome. 5 starsJe nifer Jewell
The tone and timbre of the knowledgeable host and her expert guests create immersive conversations that kindle the gardener’s passion and imagination.
I really loved this podcast, but I’ve unsubscribed because of guest commentary on politics. I listen to gardening podcast precisely because I don’t want to hear politics. Very disappointed to have to leave.
This show gives me hope. Gratitude from my home/place to yours and your guests.
