Welcome to the Diggers Podcast, inspiration for the subversive gardener where we embrace controversial gardening topics, support lively debate, and promote provocative conversations that we believe help us all become better gardeners and live more sustainably.

This podcast is brought to you by The Diggers Foundation, Australia's garden charity established by gardeners for gardeners to inspire, preserve and educate passionate gardeners to dig a bit deeper on all things green and growing.

In our first series, ‘Eucalypt: Friend and Foe’, we discuss the pros and cons of the iconic Australian tree, the eucalypt, for gardeners and land managers.
