Who are you calling a gardener?!

Big Miche joins us for a bumper episode today! The one who put Lew and Bry together, Michelle Brandon is the Director at the Garden Design Collective in Cobham, Surrey, also a garden designer, horticultural therapist and very funny lady with a whole load of stories!Just a warning though - TW: we discuss mental health/grief and bereavement and drug useGardens| horticulture | design | therapy

Part 2 and Michael tells us his favourite weed and our favourite question, how would you invest in the horticulture industry. He gives brilliant answers.

Part 1 of our special with Michael, talking about challenges in horticulture and his route into the industry

Today Lew tells us about the scholarship in the works at Cruden Farm and him getting into the Australian institute of horticulture.We also talk about a feathery Cruden farm legend and it’s important to tell you that there is description of animal cruelty. Not by either of us, obviously.

This week we’re talking about the reinstatement of the arbour in the picking garden at Cruden Farm (or the erection), bringing the historic garden features back to life and the practical realities of working in a garden when the weather has other ideas!

A long awaited catch up, we’re back and running through what’s been going on in the UK and down under.

We discussed how Bryony became a gardener, what is making a mess of Lewis’ lawns and what does an otter keep in their pocket?

Today we hear how Lewis went from construction to becoming head gardener at Dame Elisabeth Murdoch’s home ‘Cruden Farm’.

We’re back together again (on opposite sides of the world) to go through our highlights from RHS Chelsea flower show… and our most stressful moments. Lew also goes on a pissed up safari.

A slightly less unhinged bts chat this time with Bryony and Chelsea rookie Charlie
