It’s rose time!

It’s ranunculus time!

This week Michaela comes back to tell us about what she learned in her first year flower farming

This week we have something a little bit different for you! We are joined by Tom Leonard, aka Daisy Desire the Drag Queen Gardener, who is here to bring a bit of couture to our manure! We chat to Tom about how getting an allotment helped him through some tough times and gardening means to him to and his mental health. It’s become so important to him that he’s now a trained horticulturist, has started a career in this field and with the help of Daisy has made it their mission to promote the mental wellbeing benefits of horticulture, encouraging people to go outside and get growing, and motivating them to do what makes them happy. We hope you enjoy this episode as much as we loved recording it!
