Veggie gardening is a hobby growing in popularity, with more and more South Aussies learning to grow their own food. But have you ever thought of growing your own food as more than a pastime, and actually an important branch of agriculture?
Some hardcore green thumbs rely on their garden as their main source of food, while others simply grow the occasional herb on their windowsill. No matter your yield or experience, if you’ve dabbled in growing your own food, you might be considered an urban farmer.
In this episode, we talk to PhD student Hannah Thwaites, whose thesis is connecting the world of science and people by researching Adelaide‘s urban farming scene. Join us for a chat to see how the humble garden can bring together communities and persevere under a changing climate. Whether you’re a green thumb, or horticulturally hopeful, there is something for everyone in this episode!
