The Lady Gardeners Podcast – Détails, épisodes et analyse

In this episode, I had a returning guest, Rhiannon from @devonandearth. In our last episode together, where we met IRL a couple of years ago, Rhiannon shared her dreams of starting a community gardening project designed to help food banks provide fresh produce to people in need across Devon and she is now living that dream with Devon Dig and Donate, a fantastic initiative which is now in its first year and already doing incredible things. I'm so proud of Rhiannon's progress and always feel so energised after chatting with her so I hope you love listening to this one as much as I enjoyed recording!

In this episode, I got to chat to the lovely Lara Honnor, Founder of Skools Beanz CIC about the highs and lows of life and gardening. From a life-changing diagnosis to growing her own gardening community near Yeovil, Somerset, Lara opened up about her experiences with therapeutic horticulture and the past, present and future of Skool Beanz. Having seen Lara speak on Charles Dowding's Future Gardeners Forum, I knew she was going to be a fantastic guest and she certainly did not disappoint!

In this episode, I was really excited to get the chance to interview my sister, otherwise known as @the_gardenmum to share the exciting evolution of The Mini Gardeners Club. Tan has recently taken over leading as we look to expand the program across the UK and is doing such an amazing job of connecting with schools, community groups and young people to spread our message and get the next generation growing! I’ve been so motivated by her enthusiasm to get this project off the ground which has seen it go from a tiny seed of an idea to an absolute jungle of potential. There’s even a little exclusive announcement about one of the most fabulous events we’ll be at this year too so I hope you’ll enjoy!

Hello and welcome to Diaries of a Lady Gardener podcast, hosted by me, the Lady Gardener. I can't quite believe we're on season 5 of this podcast, which came to life after I desperately wanted an excuse to hop on a call with my favourite Instagram gardeners to ask them all of my pressing questions. It has turned into an incredible community of plant-lovers with inspirational guests each and every week sharing invaluable information, and making me want to buy at least 10 new plants, seed packets, bare roots, tubers (and the rest of it) every episode. I hope you're ready for another fabulous season chatting to everyone from flower farmers and allotmenteers to some of the greatest garden gurus, listening to us chat about all the things we’ve done in the name of plants, from our biggest achievements to our fabulous garden fails.

This season is sponsored by ACAI Outdoorwear, which if you follow me on Instagram, you'll know that barely a day goes by where I'm not dressed head to toe in their clothing whether I'm out at the allotment, on the farm - or even out for lunch! I love the way they perfectly balance style and performance with features such as shower resistance and thermal lining, features which are invaluable when you're someone who is working outside whatever the weather. If you're keen to get some ACAI garms for yourself, they've kindly offered podcast listeners an exclusive discount, so head to the website and use code 'DOALG20' for 20% off orders over £50. This offer ends on 31st May 2023.

In this episode, I got the pleasure of chatting to James, known as @gardendesignerjames on Instagram for something a little different. Whilst most episodes see conversations about a love of growing, this episode is focused more around the flow and design of gardens to create a sanctuary. At just 26, James has already achieved an incredible amount as an RHS show garden medallist and it was fantastic to get an insight into what it's like to be a garden designer. I really hope you'll enjoy hearing more about his story and be able to take away some ideas for your own outdoor spaces.

In this episode I got the chance to chat to Emily from @emilysgreendiary, a young lockdown gardener who found a love for growing things and has recently doubled her growing space. As one of our new The Mini Gardeners Club leaders, it was great to hear more about Emily’s journey and why she wanted to be a part of our pilot program, bringing gardening back into schools and inspiring children from a young age. I’m sure Emily’s gardening story with resonate with a lot of you, so I hope you’ll enjoy!

Today’s episode is a little extra special bonus interview with founder of ACAI Outdoorwear Kasia Bromley. Having grown up with her parents who were flower farmers and helped out weddings and keeping the farm alive, Kasia’s love for the great outdoors began in her very early years. Having studied fashion at university and moved on to work for couture brands such as Alexander McQueen, she founded ACAI to move the women’s outdoor wear away from the ‘pink it and shrink it’ approach which had gone on for too long to fill a gap in the womenswear category. As a former fashion student myself, I loved this episode and hearing how similar some of our stories are. I hope you enjoy this little insight into the brand that I love so much, how it began and their ethos of being made by women, for women.

In today’s episode, I chatted with the lovely Emma from @emmasallotmentdiaries on Instagram about her growing space and was fascinated to compare the stories of our growing experiences. Emma shared her tales of learning to grow where something will go ridiculously well one year, and the next, with absolutely no warning, will be one of your fabulous fails - be it a pumpkin arch or a carrot patch. It’s been a while since we’ve had an allotment guest on the podcast so it was fab to share our veg trials and tribulations whilst get excited for the year ahead where both of us are going back to basics. Enjoy!

On today’s episode I had the pleasure of chatting to James of Stem and Green who made a career swap from being a TV producer to growing and selling sustainable, British flowers with a small team in Hampshire. I found this chat to be so helpful in figuring out what I wanted from my own business, plus hearing James talk about his planning methods honestly made my heart sing, excel spreadsheet lovers, this one is for you. Don’t worry if you’re not the planning type, because there are so many brilliant business takeaways and inspiring segments to be had in this episode hearing the story of two growing seasons and the start of a flowery empire which I for one am incredibly excited to see expand in the coming months and years. Enjoy!

Ok so today’s guest is someone I’ve wanted to have on the podcast forever because she hosts my personal favourite flowery podcast, let’s grow girls. I’ve learnt so much about flower farming and become obsessed with so many blooms through Nicole and Sarah’s chats with incredible people and so, I’m over the moon to introduce Nicole who can be found @nicoleatcherrygarden to talk all things flowery. Pens and paper at the ready because I can assure you you’ll leave this episode with a lovely little shopping list…
