The Organic Gardening Podcast

In this month’s Organic Gardening Podcast interview, Fiona Taylor is joined by professional horticulturist and garden consultant Kate Turner.
Kate has worked behind the scenes on BBC’s Garden Rescue, ITV’s Love Your Garden and BBC Gardeners’ World. She has also been head gardener at Charterhouse School and worked closely with The Therapy Garden, a thriving horticultural therapy centre in Surrey. 
In this episode, Kate joins us at our HQ in Ryton, where she shares stories from her career, including how she helped bring together the Army Wives Gardening Club, which went on to create a medal-winning garden at the RHS Hampton Court Flower Show.

In June, we had our own stage at BBC Gardeners World Live, and we answered your questions live! Joined by Hosts Fiona Taylor and Chris Collins, Dr Anton Rosenfeld and special guest August Beth, from the Raymond Blanc Gardening School. 
We tackled questions on moles, soil improvers and aphids, as well as everyone's favourite subject, slugs and snails!

In this episode, Fiona is joined by biologist, conservationist, and bestselling author Dave Goulson. Known for his work in bumblebee conservation and his Sunday Times bestselling books The Garden Jungle and A Sting in the Tale, Dave returns with his latest book, Eat the Planet Well.
In this month's podcast, Dave discusses ethical eating, growing your own food and reducing food waste, as well as how small changes in our everyday choices can help create a healthier food system and a more sustainable future.

In this month’s podcast, Fiona and Chris chat about everything happening in the organic garden as summer gets underway. From coping with an unusually dry and unpredictable spring to deciding what can still be sown in June, they share practical advice for making the most of theis part of the growing season.
Also in this episode...
Our very own Anton Rosenfeld joins the podcast for a deep dive in to glyphosate, one of the world's most widely used herbicides. We explore concerns around its impact on human health and the environment, how it is used in gardens, public spaces and agriculture, and the alternatives available to gardeners. 
Be sure to come back later this month to hear Fiona’s conversation with Professor Dave Goulson, as they explore insects, biodiversity and the role gardeners can play in creating a healthier environment.

In this episode, Fiona visits the famous River Cottage kitchen garden and chats with Hugh Fearnley-Whittingstall about the joy of growing your own food, the power of healthy soil, and why gardening matters more than ever. From seed swapping and no-dig gardening to gut health and resilient local food systems, Hugh shares stories from nearly 30 years of growing at River Cottage and reflects on the future of gardening and food growing.
