Gavin Moth @themsgardener
George’s garden question this week was about how many pumpkins we buy in the UK. George also showed us his awesome pumpkin that he grew in his chaos bed.Tonight’s guest has turned what could have been a devastating diagnosis in to a positive career change that has helped to reduce the symptoms of his Multiple Sclerosis and benefited his mental health.It was brilliant to hear about the Silver medal winning garden that he created at RHS Badminton this summer also and the fact it has gone to a hospice so it can help many more people through tricky times.We look forward to seeing how Gavin’s allotment develops next year and what he grows in it.

Elizabeth Oldfield @elizabethsaraholdfield
Tonight we started as always with a quick chat with George and he asked us a garden question, this week about the largest ever pumpkin.Also we some how got talking about a game called knock down ginger which Jamie used to play when he was younger, who else has heard of it? Our guest tonight is the author of a wonderful book I have just finished called Fully Alive, all about how we need to become better humans are reconnect with each other to form more empathetic cohesive communities. Elizabeth is from a family of exceptional gardeners and has in the last few years discovered that she too has the passion for gardening and is learning through trial and error how to produce food for her community.What a nourishing conversation about how trying something that could be tricky and difficult has resulted in a successful mini community living experience that would be horrifying to most people but has worked for them. If we are going to survive the turbulent times ahead we all need to be brave and try new things, they might turn in to something unexpected. Thanks everyone for joining in with the conversation, join us again next week same time same place. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Daniel Puicar @danielpuicar
We start with a question from George as always, this week about where 70% of the oxygen in the planet comes from.Our guest tonight is more than just a guest, I would consider him a friend. A fellow head gardener battling with limited resources to deliver as high a quality of garden as possible.He has the added pressure that it’s an open garden in a historical site with areas of SSSI.We spoke about the fact raw sewage is being discharge by the local sewage plant on to the lake on the site which has SSSI status and there’s nothing they can do to stop it.We finally got on to talking about mushrooms in various different forms. Daniel is trying to get as much fungal life in the garden to help the plant to survive the threat of our changing climate.Thanks everyone for watching and listening, join us again next week for another guest from the world of horticulture 💚 Hosted on Acast.

Marcus Beck @big_wood_cabin 😍
We start as always with a quick chat with George and a garden question, this week all about which species of plants that provide all the food for the human race.Tonight’s guest is definitely living the dream, living off grid in a sustainable cabin in the woods. Built from wood milled from the trees.How incredible for Marcus to have played and made dens in the woodland as a kid then go on to build his own house for his family in the same woodland.It was also great to hear about the community garden that they are part of that helps them share skills and labour with the added return of fresh vegetables.I can’t wait to see the greenhouse come together and the bio digester. It’s great to see someone living sustainably and comfortably with the mod cons we have all got used too.Make sure you give Marcus a follow and also check out the episode of @granddesignstv Thanks everyone for watching and listening, join us again next week for another fantastic guest 💚 Hosted on Acast.

Josh Taylor @josh_the_gardener
We started as we always do with a quick chat with George and his garden question, this week about snails. What a fabulous fact I don’t think many people knew.Tonight we have Josh Taylor who is a garden designer and consultant at the moment but he has had some fantastic experiences in his career including at Great Dixter. He is also trying to highlight some really serious problems in horticulture firstly the pay which for the amount of skill that is involved and years that it takes to acquire those skills should be a lot higher. Then the much more but possibly related subject suicide, and the statistics are startling.We also chatted about how organic gardening is not just better for the planet but also more cost effective.The climate crisis is also another subject that can not be denied by people on the front line seeing the changes in front of our very eyes. Josh describes this past year as his most challenging in horticulture.Check out Josh’s substack https://substack.com/@thelongborder?utm_id=97760_v0_s00_e0_tv3Thanks everyone for watching, listening and contributing to the chat as ever join us again next week for another one.
