Social media can be a wonderful tool, but it can also cause that green eyed monster to emerge. On this week's episode of grow your patch something a little bit different to the normal podcast episode on chatting about gardens. Today I am talking about garden envy and what you can do to not fall into that trap. Always remember the grass is greenest where you water it. This episode applies to life as well not just gardening. Enjoy.
