Gardening seasons, wellbeing and the perils of hosting a podcast with your mum.

Monday, November 20, 2023 • Duration 42:56

Send us Fan Mail

Something a little bit different, this week Kate was unable to join us on the Growing Up Podcast so I was joined by Thersa (Mum!). What we actually recorded was 45 minutes of giggles, and chat about the nature of seasons and why gardening for well-being is really serious and vitally important.⁠

This week we talk very honestly about the link between the gardening seasons and the ebb and flow of life. How it's so important to embrace a little "autumnal mentality" sometimes both in the garden and in daily life.
⁠
Because we work together, spending so many hours potting and packing orders, we really hope that you enjoy the natural, largely unedited chat between us. Who else thinks that Mum is a natural that needs to come back onto the podcast?⁠
⁠
Kate is very much recovering and wanted to send her best wishes to all of the wider podcast friends and family.⁠

Herbs are beautiful plants that you can plant in your allotment, garden or grow indoors, but the truth is that these plants have the power to really transform your food and your mood, and are the perfect 'gateway plants'.
