As a veggie I love nuts as a source of protein but the fat cost can be very high - bought this after listening to your video on yogurt about how much do you have to “spend” to get the protein4) What dosage of vitamin D is optimal as I am on prescribed maintenance dose of 25,000 units a month, not sure if safe to increase as I think I have a mild case of sad5) Please can you clarify what a hand sized portion means? Palm sized? From finger tips to wrist sized? And whose hand? 6) Can you suggest some soy products please. I don't where to start! Did you mention soy yoghurt??7) More a comment on last nights discussion about getting a greater variety of veggies/ nuts & beans in: don't forget the variety of herbs/ spices which we add to our food- they all play an important part. Eg Curry powder is a rich source of iron, ginger and anti inflammatory (I think) & medicine gardens are part of Horticultural & medicinal history. Herbs fresh or dried play a big role in our diet, if you cook from scratch, chuck ‘em in! 8) Would love to have some guidance on what vitamin tablets would benefit me this time of year ( I know massive subject)9) Vitamins is a good question for me too, post menopause, should I be taking any ?10 ) For breakfast, is it healthier to have a bowl of porridge or would shredded wheat work equally as good?11) Should you take vitamin d all year or just throughout the winter months12) How much water should I drink?

Unlock the secrets of sustainable agriculture with us as we welcome Dr. Carl Motsenbocker from Louisiana State University. Discover how his work in local foods and sustainable farming is reshaping horticultural education and community connections. We'll guide you through the discussions at the 2024 American Society for Horticultural Science Annual Conference, where we gained insights into the shift from large-scale farming to small-scale  environmentally conscious agricultural practices.As we explore the world of sustainable small-scale farming in Louisiana, Carl shares stories from his experiences teaching vegetable crops and organic gardening. These real-world classes aren't just about growing food; they're a platform for engaging young people in practical, hands-on learning and community projects. The landscape is changing, and new farmers are stepping up with a fresh, environmentally conscious approach, bridging the gap in the local food supply and revitalizing local agriculture.Learn about farm-to-school programs, which are transforming how food is grown, taught, and consumed in schools across Louisiana. From the initial USDA Farm to School Conference grant in 2013 to the comprehensive program we see today, these initiatives are growing food at schools, integrating curricula, and sourcing local produce. By adapting educational resources for dynamic learning methods, we're reaching younger audiences and supporting farm-to-school efforts with the Seeds to Success program, ensuring a sustainable future for generations to come.

This week, when many in the US have time off with family and friends, we note our gratitude for Public Gardens and green spaces around our country and in our lives. Guest-Host Abra Lee is in conversation with one of North America's public garden leaders, Paul Redman. As President and Chief Executive Officer of Longwood Gardens for the last 16 years, Paul has implemented institutional and strategic reforms that have positioned the Gardens as a premier horticultural, cultural, and educational institution of the 21st Century while respecting the values of its founder, Pierre S. du Pont. The result has been nothing short of astounding with overall attendance doubling to almost 1.54 million visitors per year; an incredible climb in membership support from 17,000 to 78,000 households; and earned income has almost tripled – all in the last decade. Longwood Gardens is now North America's most visited paid public garden and the most visited paid cultural attraction in Philadelphia. In their conversation, Abra and Paul explore ideas of leadership, envisioning public gardens for the future, and fearlessness. Enjoy! Cultivating Place now has a donate button! We thank you so much for listening over the years and we hope you'll support Cultivating Place. We can't thank you enough for making it possible for this young program to grow even more of these types of conversations. The show is available as a podcast on SoundCloud and iTunes.

As a Professor of Horticulture at Texas State University, Dr. Cade teaches 12 different courses in horticulture and advises multiple graduate students on research projects.

Can gardening positively affect the overall quality of life in humans? Whether you're a horticulture enthusiast or a casual gardener, you'll find Dr. Cade's insights fascinating.
