Winter is here in the UK, so while Saul and Lucy hunker down, don layers and fire up the kettle more frequently than usual, what do their minds turn to in the garden? This is the perfect season for clearance of 2025 growth, for establishing new designs and for de-cluttering stores and greenhouses. Any hours that you can put into the garden now, will reward you hugely come spring and summer, when the jobs mount up. Quick - more tea and biscuits!At last! Spring is on the horizon, we've had a few days without rain and it finally feels as though that winter dankness is coming to an end. So, the podcasting duo celebrate with... a day out in London! It's to visit the Garden Press Event - and as well as catching up with their horticultural chums, Lucy and Saul see innovations in peat-free composts, water conservation and much more.

This week on Cultivating Place, Abra Lee is in conversation with Laverne Brockington and Vance Davis, great nieces of Annie Mae Vann Reid, an historic florist and entrepreneur based in Darlington, South Carolina. From the 1920s to the 1960s, Annie Mae tended a thriving floral business that grew out of her hobby flower garden, and grew her community with her.  For Laverne and Vance, their aunt's legacy is rooted not only in flowers but in faith and a deep commitment to community. Through dedication and vision, she nurtured spaces of learning, pride, and possibility through this groundbreaking work. The stories passed down through her family offer a richer, more personal portrait of the woman behind the blooms. In conversation with Abra, and in conjunction with her historical research, Laverne and Vance explore the lessons Annie Mae Vann Reid planted, the barriers she broke, and the impact that continues to blossom through generations.

During the third week of the month, private homes and gardens, many rarely open to the public, welcome visitors in celebration of beauty, place, and history.In this episode of Grandma's Silver, I sit down with Karen Ellsworth, Director of Historic Garden Week, and Virginia Gillock, Board Member and Chair, to discuss the origins and evolution of this nearly century-old tradition.We explore the Garden Club of Virginia's founding vision, why the event has endured for generations, the deeply place-based nature of the tours across Virginia, how gardens tell stories that architecture alone cannot, and what visitors can expect this year. From floral arrangements and front-door hospitality to the anticipation of spring across the Commonwealth, this conversation highlights what makes Historic Garden Week so special, and why 2026 marks a particularly meaningful moment in its history.RESOURCES:Learn more about Historic Garden Week here, including how to purchase tickets.Follow along on Facebook and/or Instagram to stay updated on events, photographs, and more.Interested in the book recommended by today's guests?

Gardening season is just ahead of use and everyone will be planting the usual suspects.  Tomatoes, peppers, egg plants, squash, beans and many other well knowns will soon be all over America’s gardens and tables but these 10 all deserve consideration.  Many of these are actually wild plants, others basically wild with just … Continue reading →

Spring may feel close, but are you preparing your yard the right way — or setting yourself up for costly mistakes before planting season even begins? In this episode of https://FixItRadio.com, guest host Bill Anderson (https://www.prep2protectco.com/) is joined by gardening experts Pam and Dennis Brewster, longtime contributors familiar to listeners of both Fix It Radio and Drive Radio, for a practical, eye-opening deep dive into smarter gardening and landscape planning. As Colorado weather swings from warm spells to freezing mornings, the conversation reveals why late winter is actually the most important preparation season. When should you really prune trees? Are you cutting too much — or not enough? What simple tool mistakes can introduce disease without you realizing it? The Brewsters break down pruning timing, fruit tree shaping, propagation secrets, transplanting success, and how to turn yard cuttings into an endless supply of plants. But the real surprise? Gardening success often starts underground. Can any soil truly be improved? Is rototilling quietly destroying healthy soil biology? And why can neighbors just a mile apart get completely different results? From planning your garden layout and rotating crops to choosing plants that actually thrive in Colorado's climate, this episode challenges listeners to rethink everything they thought they knew about spring preparation. Before you buy a single plant, ask yourself: Are you gardening harder… or gardening smarter this year?

As the earliest signs of spring unfurl in the mild climates, think snowdrops, manzanita, the earliest narcissus, wild iris, and Daphne odora – hmmm, the earliest pollinators are paying even more attention than we are. This week, we learn more about some of our earliest and BEST native pollinating bees – the orchard mason bees. We're in conversation with Thyra McElvie, who loves “these sweet little bees". And it was this love that brought her to gardening in her adulthood. Based in the Pacific Northwest, Thyra works with Rent Mason Bees, an organization that helps bring efficient, native, pollinating solitary bees, including orchard mason (species in genus Osmia) and leaf-cutter bees (mostly species in genus Megachile), into home and productive landscapes around the US. Just a few fabulous statistics for us Gardeners to keep in mind as to all that we can and should feed with our gardens, including our own delight: mason bees can visit (and pollinate) up to 2,000 flowers a day (read: plant more flowers); and just 400 mason bees do the pollinating work equivalent to 4,000 honeybees because of their manner of collecting pollen with their entire abdomen results in the successful pollination of 95% of every flower they land on.

Have you ever tried winter sowing… only to wonder if you were doing something wrong? In today's episode, I'm chatting with Luke from MIgardener all about winter sowing, what it is, how it works, and who it's really best for. I'll be honest with you — I haven't had success with winter sowing in my northern garden when it comes to warm-season vegetables like tomatoes and peppers. But after this conversation, I'm looking at it differently. Instead of trying to make it replace my indoor seed-starting system, I'm shifting how I'll use it this year — especially for medicinal herbs, culinary herbs, and perennials (particularly those that benefit from cold stratification). In this episode, we talk through: What winter sowing actually is Which crops thrive with this method Why warm-season crops struggle Cold stratification and why it matters How to handle watering and ventilation Dense planting tricks for lettuce How to simplify your seed-starting system If you've ever felt overwhelmed by seed-starting calendars, grow lights, and timing everything perfectly, this episode may give you a refreshing perspective. Gardening doesn't have to be complicated. Sometimes we just need to work with nature instead of trying to outsmart it. And if you're growing herbs and flowers this year, you may want to give winter sowing a try right alongside me.

Where do you need to go with your farming? Doug Fifer of Fifer Family Farms joins Jeff, Mary, and Eric to talk about his experience and journey with no-till crop farming over the past fifteen years. Doug raises turkeys and cash crops in Mount Solon, Virginia, and is the president of the Virginia No-Till Alliance (VANTAGE).For Doug, his journey with no-till farming began in 2010 when he began questioning where his farm needed to go. As a youth, Doug remembers having to pick up rocks from the field after tilling and cultivating the soil for planting. He and his family eventually sent the moldboard plow to the scrap heap and stopped tilling the soil completely.In Doug's journey, he continues to learn, read, and experiment with vetch and more families of cover crops. He particularly enjoys meeting with and mentoring other farmers, and sharing his experience and lessons learned. One of Doug's regrets is that he did not start no-till farming sooner. To register for the VANTAGE Winter Conference scheduled for Wednesday, February 18, 2026, at the Rockingham County Fairgrounds, please visit https://www.virginianotill.com/winter-conference. You will benefit from hearing Dr. Ray Weil, James Hoorman, and the panel discussions with farmers.     We can all be 4 The Soil, for the future! Here is how with four principles:1) Keep the soil covered -- with living plants and residue. Cover crops are our friends and allies; avoid leaving soil bare.2) Minimize soil disturbance -- Practice no-till or gentle tillage as much as possible in your field or garden.3) Maximize living roots -- for the longest time to improve biodiversity, soil structure, and life in the soil.4) Energize with diversity -- aboveground and belowground with high-quality food for soil and plants, and integration of livestock on cropland. If you are interested in art and framing the 4 The Soil posters for your office or home, the 16” by 20” posters are available for purchase and printing as single posters or a set of five posters.If you have questions about soil and water conservation practices, soil health principles, and starting your journey to restore the life in your soil, call or visit a USDA Service Center, a Virginia Soil and Water Conservation District office, or your local Virginia Cooperative Extension office.  4 the Soil: A Conversation is made possible with funding support from the National Fish and Wildlife Foundation and The Agua Fund.

Most preppers understand that gardening is a cornerstone of long-term self-reliance, yet far too many operate under a dangerous assumption: that growing food is simply a matter of seeds, soil, and water. The reality is that every garden faces an inevitable adversary—pests that can decimate weeks of careful cultivation in a matter of days. If your preparedness plan includes food production but lacks a reliable, organic solution for pest control, you've built your garden on a foundation that could collapse when you need it most. In this episode, Todd shares a time-tested neem oil recipe he's used successfully in his own garden, along with the critical details that make the difference between an effective treatment and wasted effort. You'll learn why this particular approach to organic gardening matters for preppers who refuse to compromise their soil with harsh chemicals, how to properly mix and apply the solution for maximum effectiveness against garden pests, and the storage considerations that most people overlook—mistakes that render even the best organic bug recipe useless. Todd also addresses the broader preparedness implications of having this capability when supply chains fail and garden stores are no longer an option. For those serious about genuine food independence, understanding how to protect your harvest isn't optional—it's fundamental knowledge. Whether you're currently maintaining a productive garden or building toward that goal, these are the practical, organic pest control skills that separate those who can actually feed themselves from those who merely think they can.

In these dark, cold days of February, when too much rain or snow, and WAY TO MUCH ICE, or not enough rain or snow, might be getting you down, we take this week, just in time for Valentine's Day, to embrace, lean into, and love, the comforts of tea. We're in conversation with Michael Fritts, founder of Golden Feather Tea in Concow, CA, exploring some of the history and cultivation, the rituals, and the rewards (which are many) of tea. After more than 15 years at it, and despite massive losses to his garden and farm from the Camp Fire of 2018, Mike joins us to share the ecological, cultural, economic, and personal joys of a traditional Camellia sinensis tea garden in California's North State.

We are just a few days from Valentines day.  For me that is when I want most of my seeds started for spring set out.  I use that date as a cut off because I tend to set my plants out starting about March 15th.  This is also the time of year when my inbox starts to heat up with questions about the coming garden season and one topic always exceeds all others.  No not which variety of tomato to plant, not which fertility aid to use or what to use for mulch.  No the number one question is always … Continue reading →
