  • Great

    I am an avid gardener, but did not realize how little I knew about actual landscape design. Maci opens it up on this podcast, and it’s changed how I look at my surroundings.

  • Love it!

    The audio space has needed something like this for a while. Digging into what landscapes are, what they can be, and what they do... it’s just so necessary. We need more meditations on place and process, and this helps to fill that need just a bit more. Keep it up! Also, lots of people are behind paywalls, so getting into research and sharing it? Very very cool. Love the interviews too. Thanks for your work!

  • Great information and perspective

    Nell presents bites of landscape nerd material in intriguing yet digestible bites. I especially enjoyed the recent episode about African American garden typologies. I so appreciate her perspective as a woman of color and a relatively new designer in the field. Thanks, Nell! Looking forward to more.
