In this episode I chatted to the incredible Field Kitchen Head Gardener at Riverford Organic, Penny Hemming about her journey into the world of growing and how she ended up with what I’d certainly consider as my absolute dream job. Her enthusiasm, passion and willingness to share was just so wonderful, and whilst I couldn’t visit Penny in real life at her garden due to illness, listening to her story certainly brightened my spirits and got me exciting for the many growing years I have ahead of me! Enjoy!
Hello and welcome to Diaries of a Lady Gardener podcast, hosted by me, the Lady Gardener. I can't quite believe we're on season 5 of this podcast, which came to life after I desperately wanted an excuse to hop on a call with my favourite Instagram gardeners to ask them all of my pressing questions. It has turned into an incredible community of plant-lovers with inspirational guests each and every week sharing invaluable information, and making me want to buy at least 10 new plants, seed packets, bare roots, tubers (and the rest of it) every episode. I hope you're ready for another fabulous season chatting to everyone from flower farmers and allotmenteers to some of the greatest garden gurus, listening to us chat about all the things we’ve done in the name of plants, from our biggest achievements to our fabulous garden fails.
This season is sponsored by ACAI Outdoorwear, which if you follow me on Instagram, you'll know that barely a day goes by where I'm not dressed head to toe in their clothing whether I'm out at the allotment, on the farm - or even out for lunch! I love the way they perfectly balance style and performance with features such as shower resistance and thermal lining, features which are invaluable when you're someone who is working outside whatever the weather. If you're keen to get some ACAI garms for yourself, they've kindly offered podcast listeners an exclusive discount, so head to the website and use code 'DOALG20' for 20% off orders over £50.
