In this episode Joff hops on the train to Paddington and navigates the London underground to find The Business Design Centre in Islington, London. It's the Garden press Event and he get to talk to some amazing people who have produced some equally amazing and well thought out products.

Previous guest on the podcast Andy from Dahlia Beach (Pictured) tells us about her flower farm, the highs and lows of growing flowers, and her plans for 2024. Joff tries to sell her a double decker bus.

Sue O'Neil form Genus Gardenwear is launching a fabulous new product - The Pro-Pant. Feature rich, designed by gardeners, and built to last these trousers are going to be a firm favourite amongst professional gardeners and landscapers. 

Guy Grieve from Atlantic Garden has lived an intersting life writing books, living in the wilds of Alaska, diving for scallops in Mull, and now turning seaweed into a product that will put the life back into your soil.

Alex Curran started Roots Plants three years ago and has a network of UK nurseries supplying sustainable plants with provenance. 

Dick Woods from Finches Friend has decided to combat the problem of parasite transference on garden bird feeders and has produced several new products that will save a lot of our garden birds from trichomonosis.

Stuart from Niwaki introduces us to a new secateur the latest addition to there fabulous range of japanese garden tools.

In this episode Joff talks to Adrian Bloom about his new book FOGGY BOTTOM - A GARDEN to SHARE.

From breaking turf in an empty meadow in 1966, to its near maturity in 2023 it is the story of a garden and its plants. That’s a 56-year-old garden with stories to tell. 

More important in Adrian’s view is what the Foggy Bottom Garden represents today and how many more can benefit from sharing it. He shows and describes changes in weather and habitats, dramatic seasonal changes shown through the diversity of many worthwhile plants.  

How to keep a balance between design and ‘right plant’, ‘right place’ and need for change as the garden grows and develops. Adrian has continually adapted his garden as the once empty windswept meadow became sheltered and shaded. Flooding still happens from time to time, spring frosts seek out early flowers, occasional gale blows the tops out of trees.

Joff discovers Adrian's early passion for speed skating, how a seed brought back from his adventures is now a 100 foot Redwood tree, the fashion for conifers and the changing markets. The early days of Foggy Bottom from a stark new-build bungalow with a small garden to six acre grounds laid out for perrenials and conifers. 

To have a look at the books and it's contents or to purchase go to the Foggy Bottom website here.

Derek Gow is a farmer and nature conservationist. Born in Dundee in 1965, he left school when he was 17 and worked in agriculture for five years. Inspired by the writing of Gerald Durrell, all of whose books he has read - thoroughly - he jumped at the chance to manage a European wildlife park in central Scotland in the late 1990s before moving on to develop two nature centres in England. He now lives with his two children on a 300-acre farm on the Devon/Cornwall border which he is in the process of rewilding. 

Derek has played a significant role in the reintroduction of the Eurasian beaver, the water vole and the white stork in England.

He is currently working on a reintroduction project for the wildcat.

 

I ask Derek about his transition from Scottish farm to Scottish wildlife park to a 300 acre rewilding project in Devon.

We talk extremes from huge water buffalo to tiny harvest mice and from Heck cattle whose sole aim in life seems to be to kill you to water voles and white storks. 

Derek is a straight talker with a dislike for commitees much prefering to be hands on getting jobs done while others continue to discuss and debate. 

If you like what you hear you can stay on Derek's farm to see for yourself what he's getting up to. Go to www.rewildingcoombeshead.co.uk 

If you want to dig deeper into the processes of growing your own organic food, self-sufficiency practitioner, Liz Zorab, offers insights to the rhythm and patterns of her gardening year. In this personal gardening journey, she explores seasonal harvests and how the vegetable garden sits within the wider context of the gardening landscape – including weather, microclimates, water cycles, light levels, seasons and the gardener’s personal tastes and preferences. Liz’s salt of the earth approach to life and to the garden and her gentle humour makes The Seasoned Gardener an easily digestible read. She provides hundreds of practical tips, including how-to guides, observations and inspiration for both the beginner and practiced gardener alike. Unlike many gardening books that run from January to December, this book starts in the autumn when harvesting is at its peak. Most of the fruit, vegetables, herbs and flowers highlighted in this book are grouped according to when we enjoy them most – at the point of harvest. The Seasoned Gardener will show you how to: Enjoy the abundance of each month of the year Decide which plants are best to grow in your garden Find pleasure in your growing space year-round Avoid the pitfalls of doing too much at once Be creative with your garden resources Make the most of your time and energy Celebrate nature’s productivity as much as your own. This is a journey of experiment and learning that will inspire you to grow tastier food and savour the experience.

 

Liz Zorab is author of the bestselling 'Grounded – A Gardener's Journey to Abundance and Self-Sufficiency'. She spent more than 20 years working with specialist housing charities and in community development, with an emphasis on innovative volunteering practices. An award-winning gardener, she gained an RHS Silver Medal for a community-led garden featured on BBC's 'Gardeners World Live' in 2002. A health crisis led Liz to turn to her life-long passion for gardening and growing food as a career. Liz spent several years transforming her 0.8 acre plot in Monmouthshire into an abundant smallholding. She is now regenerating a tired and over-grazed 4.5 acre site using permaculture practices. On less than an acre, she grows most of the food and drink her family enjoy each year, giving them food security, resilience and increased self-reliance. She enjoys spending time with Mr J (her husband) and her family, watching rugby and creative handicrafts, and has a distinct dislike of housework. Liz regularly writes for Permaculture Magazine, teaches gardening and self-sufficiency skills and encourages thousands of people to take up their trowels and live their dreams through a vibrant YouTube Channel, Liz Zorab – Byther Farm.

In this episode Joff talks to Simon from Hydria Life who explains the merits of his award winning water fountain kit with rechargeable batteries and a programmable timer. It won Best New Product at GLEE in 2022.

 

Tea Francis, pictured, is an arachnologist and science communicator who's  aim is to 'keep the pro-spider propaganda machine well oiled' and to change our attitudes towards spiders in our homes and gardens - something she does extremely well. She offers workshops, socials, and more and can be found on instagram as @teasjungle.

 

Kate from Capi-Europe offers an impressive range of pots, planters, and waterbutts that are produced in a CO2 neutral factory using and recycling old discarded fishing nets in their production.

 

Karen Abbott is from Spear and Jackson a company that has been in the business of producing tools for 260 years. A long handled trowel, a pruning saw, a cape cod weeder, and a small spade that is great for splitting and dividing perennials are all new to their range this year.

 

Adrain Bloom a well known family name that is synonymous with Bressingham Gardens is releasing a beautifully produced and illustrated book FOGGY BOTTOM - a gardeners share. Available in September 2023 I suspect it's going to be a bible for plant lovers for many years to come.

 

Haws Watering Cans are old friends of the show and Josh explained their new concept that they want to promote in 2023 - The Art of Watering. He also goes into detail on the many steps required in the manufacture of one of their beautiful cans.

 

Sarah Gerard-Jones from The Plant Clinic offers PLANT RESCUE BOXES a concept to prevent imperfect plants, the compost, and their pots fro going into landfill. So popular is her idea that The RHS at Wisley are trialling her boxes. 

 

Sean Kelly is from Fauna Bird a Dutch Company that have worked with global company Tetra Pak to develop the technology to remove the plastic film from inside cartons - a material that is then turned into innovative birds feeders. They also have a complimentary range of bamboo feeders and ceramic nest boxes.

 

In this episode Joff talks to Sarah Biddulph and Sarah Rivett-Carnac about The Generous Gardener where they offer a series specialist plant sales  and a season of  brilliantly curated lectures given by many of today's top garden designers, gardeners, flower growers, and photographers. The venue is the beautiful Arts and Crafts property Rodmarton Manor located between Cirencester and Tetbury in Gloucestershire.

The amazing line up for 2023 includes Todd Longstaffe- Gowan, Richard Miers, James Alexander-Sinclair, Pippa Greenwood, Lulu Urquart and Adam Hunt, Jimi Blake, Niff Barnes, Jinny Blom, Clive Nichols, and  Georgie Newbury. 

The Specialist Plant sales are held at Charlton Farm near Malmesbury and have some of the countries top growers and nurseries to include Hardy's Cottage Garden Plants, Exedera Plants, Tom's Yard, Tortworth Plants, Riverside Bulbs, Chris Cooke, Malcolm Allinson Plants, Kitchen garden Plants, Harry's Honey, The Gobbett, Old Court Nursery, and Sparrow Plant Supports. 

The entry fee includes a donation to The Simon Rivett-Carnac Trust who support mental health charities in the UK.

The gardens at Rodmarton Manor are famed for their collection of over 150 varieties of snowdrops and are open for snowdrop days on a number of dates at the start of February every year. There are more opportunities to visit the garden throughout the year.

In this Episode sponsored by Genus Gardenwear Joff talks to Chris Baines about his book The RHS COMPANION TO WILDLIFE GARDENING - how to make a wildlife garden.

 

This best selling book was first published in 1985 and launched at the Chelsea Flower Show making wildlife a mainstream issue for gardeners and the public. Now fully revised and updated by Chris, this freshly illustrated edition highlights the changes in garden wildlife over the the past 30 years.

 

Incorporating RHS research, updated best practice and addressing a multitude of controversial wildlife issues, it is also a celebration of of the rich variety of wild plants and animals that can bring a garden to life.

 

Chris talks about why to make wildlife garden in the first place.  What sort of habitats can be created. 

An oxymoron? A wild vegetable garden? 

 

Chris was instrumental in setting up National Nest Box Week  and International Dawn Chorus Day.

 

The Book is Published by Quarto/Frances Lincoln on 16th February 2023

In this episode sponsored by Genus Gardenwear Joff  talks to Barbara Segall about her new book GARDENS of the SOUTH-EAST published by Frances Lincoln. Within its 144 pages are  20 gardens many of which often remain overlooked but all of which display the passion of the owners or gardeners that look after them. It's a fascinating talk with not just the gardens, but many names of people involved in horticulture scattered throughout the episode for one reason or another. Jane Perrone, Alys Fowler, Peter Donegan, Rocky Coles, Marcus Harper, Fergus Garrett, Clive Boursnell, Beth Chatto, Christopher LLoyd, Tom Coward,William Robinson, John Brookes,  and Gertrude Jekyll all get a brief mention.

The publisher says:

A tour of some of the UK's most beguiling gardens in the counties of Kent, Sussex and Surrey, the counties that exemplify 'the garden of England'.

They are in villages and towns, as well as in deep countryside, and all are privately owned. Some have been in the possession of the same family for many generations, while others have recently been transformed by new owners. Some open for the National Garden Scheme, while others are open privately and in some cases for just the occasional day for charity.

The stunning gardens explored in this visually rich guide include: Arundel Castle, Denmans, Gravetye Manor, Munstead Wood and Sussex Prairie Garden. The book also includes a gazetteer of other important gardens in the area with location advice, to enable readers to plan a more elaborate tour of this fertile garden area.

Filled with stunning, specially commissioned photographs by Clive Boursnell, Secret Gardens of the South East is a unique guide that opens the gates to the most intriguing gardens in this part of England.
