The episode 'From Mary: Earth First Gardening with Melanie Cotillo of Lazy Dirt Wildflower Farm' was such a refreshing and thoughtful take on what it means to truly care for the land, and it was genuinely enjoyable to listen to. The conversation with Melanie feels both inspiring and grounding, especially in the way gardening is reframed as a relationship rather than a transaction, with insights that linger and gently shift how even the smallest tended spaces are seen.
This invites me to think outside the box in sustainable living and doesnât feel overwhelming. I feel less lonely in my slow living efforts knowing these two are out there representing many followers also supporting this kind of intentionality.
I enjoy the show, but would enjoy it so much more if theyâd give their guests more time to speak. The June 21 show is a perfect example of over-taking the guest and focusing on their own musings, etc. I tuned in to hear the guest speaker - If only she was giving a chance to speak! Emma, please give it a rest! My eyes just glazed over.
Definitely my favorite weekly podcast. I love the range of topics covered and find myself drawn in even if I didnât think I would initially like the topic. Each episode is densely packed with high quality info and I tend to listen to each episode twice to really soak it all in. Such a highlight to my week each Friday!
Hello from Ontario. Weekly listener. This weeks was awesome !! Very inspiring. Keep up the good work. Love Judy. ( dairy farmer )
