Yams vs Sweet Potatoes

Hey Plant People, join us for the last time as we finish the last few minutes of our interview with Sustainable Food Center & La Cocina Alegre, followed by Vikram and I reminiscing about our time making In the Grow. If we leave you with anything let it be these great resources and encouragement to go out and plant something! Get growing, y'all! Much Love, Rachel & Vikram https://lubbockdreamcenter.org/pocket-pal/ https://doubleuptexas.org/ https://www.growingtogethertexas.org/ @sfclocal    @doubleup_westtx   @rootsgardenlbk   <------follow on Instagram

Hi Plant People, this week we have three special guests from Sustainable Food Center & La Cocina Alegre. We talk about the work they're doing in our community and their Double-Up Food Bucks program!  doubleuptexas.org @sfclocal @doubleup_westtx

This week we're still talking about gardening basics, specifically watering and picking the right varieties of warm-season crops.   2 more episodes after this! They will be epic. With three guests from Sustainable Food Center and La Cocina Alegre, how could we go wrong? We can't. We're great and amazing, and we'll miss you. 

Hi Plant People, this week Vikram and I are talking a lot about topsoil. Did you know that topsoil is not the top!? I didn't. We'll also do a speed round, listing cool weather crops you should plant now before your summer garden. We've got 3 more episodes left, so please stay tuned. We're going out in style! <3 Thanks for supporting us.

Hello Plant People, This week we’re getting back to basics. We cover a couple more listener questions and talk about things that will hopefully get you excited about your spring garden. Learn more about how to have a successful year of growing! We will miss you all, but stay tuned for a few more episodes!

Hi Plant People! In the Grow is back for another season. We’re so excited for a spring full of great plant content and we’re kicking things off with an episode full of answers to listener questions. We will miss you guys! Only a few more episodes left.

Ho-ho-ho! Let’s talk about Christmas tree farms. Learn about the differences between fresh-cut, live, and plastic trees, and some alternative, non-traditional decoration ideas that may fit you just right for the holidays.

Thanksgiving is on the way, so it’s a great time to talk about sweet potatoes and yams. What’s the difference and how can you tell? Learn all about it on In the Grow!   ~ We will take a break from new episodes next week, but we'll be back to wrap up the season the following week when we talk about Christmas Tree farms. ~

This week it’s one of Rachel’s most favorite things — the history of fruit pie!  From ancient Egypt to American apple pie, we’re going to talk about where certain pies come from and where the fruits that fill them come from too. Go have some pie! 

This week we’re saying, “Goodnight, Garden.” — It’s almost winter. The leaves are dropping. Plants are going dormant and you can too. Take a break with us.
