Through The Garden Gate

We’re back after a week off, hope you didn’t miss us too much! We started talking about the weather obviously and the equinox, Then we got a garden question from George this week about courgette!

This weeks guest we tried to have on a few weeks ago but technical difficulties prevented it but tonight we have the wonderful Tasha all the way from the Isle of Man! 🇮🇲

Tasha has revolutionised the way we take pictures of our veg and definitely has a cult following now 🍄‍🟫🍆🥕

Tasha told us how she got in to foraging for mushroom and just generally admiring mushrooms.

We also learnt that she is a keen cook and loves to rustle up vegan delights from her home grown produce. I am eagerly awaiting her Crotch to Plate series.

Take away from the episode are MSG for the win, Tofu is awesome and check out the game Wingspan 👍🏻

Thanks everyone for watching and listening see you all next week 💚

Short one today because we had a guest pull out, we started as always with George’s garden question this week all about a fruit with built in air conditioning!

Jamie had something exciting to show us… Honey from his bee hives! His first ever harvest! 🐝

Jamie also told us all about his trip to Fothergills, one of the largest seed supplier in the UK.

Of course we talk about the shocking gardening news that Monty Don is stepping down from hosting Gardeners World at the end of the year!

Join us next week for another guest from the world of horticulture 💚

We start the episode as ever with a fab question from George this week all about the largest garden in the world!

Marc and Jamie discuss the shocking and unexpected drawing in of the evenings that happens every year and of course the weeks weather.

Tonight we spot the the soil enthusiast Teddy who knows more about soil than most people know about the food grown in it.

Fantastic chat that could have gone on for hours, Teddy has had some incredible experiences of how food is produced in other countries and end up in our supermarkets, yet we don’t know the face that poured love in to producing it

Farming has to change before it’s to late, I encourage you all to go and sign his petition in his bio and let’s put pressure on the EU to start the ball rolling on #savethesoil

A random time and day for a very good reason, today’s guest is from the east coast of Australia so for him it’s 19:30pm.

We started as we always do with a quick chat and a garden question from George, this week about Rhubarb as we were wearing Rhubarb leaves on our heads the other day.

Our guest is from the other side of the world, who is trying to help people reduce the supply chain from food grower to food eater with self sufficiency, connecting with nature and forming a community of like minded people.

What a fantastic chat wide ranging talking about how our respective countries are being affected by climate change.

Nick talked about how he grows a diverse range of food for his family and grows plants to create herbal products to sell.

He is also part of an eco community that is slowly creating a sustainable village cooperative that’s sounds absolutely amazing.

What an amazing inspirational chat about how we can all live a much more wholesome life, thanks everyone for watching and listening we will be back again next week 💚

So me and Jamie just chatted about our growing season, what we have succeeded in what’s failed what we need to try next year to create a more resilient veg garden.

Thanks for all our regulars for joining in with the chat 💚
