Podcasts about Offshoot

I think this Offshoot episode will make you pause next time you find yourself in front of a colourful wall of seed packets. As with many seemingly simple things, the story of a small seed, can in fact be a lot more fascinating and complicated than it might at first appear. So take a journey into the history and science of seeds. We'll ponder the Portuguese, spreading pepper seeds around the world and seed banks in St Petersburg, Syria and the Arctic Circle. We'll hear about the skills of Ethiopian farmers. Adam Alexander, also known as the seed detective and a self confessed vegetable anorak is endlessly curious about seeds and in his new book The Accidental Seed Heroes he is on the trail of the growers who are championing traditional varieties and breeding new ones that will adapt to our changing climate.What can these seed heroes teach us, as we think about what to grow this April?.Takeaways: The inception of plant breeding can be traced back to our Neolithic ancestors, who began selecting wild relatives for cultivation approximately 12,000 years ago, primarily focusing on cereals. Adam Alexander, the author of The Accidental Seed Heroes, emphasises the significance of traditional plant breeding and the critical need to preserve genetic diversity in crops for future food security. The podcast highlights the remarkable adaptive capabilities of open-pollinated crops, which are essential for resilience against climate change and environmental fluctuations. The discussion reveals the importance of seed banks and living collections, such as the Vavilov Institute, in maintaining genetic diversity and supporting agro-biodiversity. Adam Alexander describes his travels to Ethiopia and Albania, where he learned from indigenous farmers who practice sustainable agriculture and maintain a rich diversity of crops. The episode sheds light on the necessity of evolving our agricultural practices to ensure food security in the face of climate change, advocating for the cultivation of diverse and adaptive crop varieties.

It's rare to find a wedding filmmaker who's doing something truly different - but that's exactly what Alex from Mole Hill Media is achieving. He describes his style as “marmite,” drawing inspiration from romcom teasers and reality TV rather than traditional wedding filmmaking.In this conversation, we dive into his unique approach: how he discreetly mics up couples for the entire day using hidden lavs, why spontaneous guest interviews add a new layer of depth to a couple's story, and the process of shaping over 1TB of footage and audio into Netflix-style documentary films.Guest: https://www.molehillmedia.comHost: https://roo-films.comCoda: https://coda-conference.comVidFlow the best way to deliver your Wedding Films, start your free trial today:https://signups.vidflow.co/ref/roo-stainMusicbed Free Trial + 3 Free SongsTake your wedding films to the next level with Musicbed, use the below link for a 14 day free trial with 3 free music licences:https://fm.pxf.io/roofreetrialRooDogs & Yeti StrapsCustom made wind noise reducers and storage solutions for the Sony TX650 & 660 Microphoneshttps://roo-films.com/shop/10% off Offshoot the ultimate file backup manager, use code CODA10 at checkouthttps://hedge.co/products/offshoot Hosted on Acast.

In Rough Patch - How a year in the garden brought me back to life; Kathy Slack shares all the lessons she learned from her own story of recovery from depression. She shared her plant story with us in series 2 in an episode called Kathy's Radishes. As we sat by her veg patch she explained why it was so powerful to see life in the soil and discover its potential to grow food. In the conversation in this Offshoot episode she tells us why it was so important for her to get those lessons down on paper. We talk about what she wants readers to take away and as she explains; a book like this when she was struggling would not have solved her problems but she would not have felt so alone. And we find out how a cow can perhaps teach all of us something about just being present. And Kathy being so generous with her recipes and her expertise - I ask her for some advice on what to grow this year!Independent podcasts like Our Plant Stories depend on their listeners for help with the costs of making the podcast such as the hosting platform and the editing programme.Using the Buy Me A Coffee platform you can make a one off online donation of £5 and that money will go towards making more episodes.

Picture yourself in a garden. Do you get your phone out to take photos of the plants and send them to friends and family? Maybe a swift selfie! Perhaps like me you google the plants - wanting to identify them.Now picture a bench in the same garden but this time you and anyone else around you are just sitting, not a phone in sight.

When we think of 'allotment history' we perhaps have images from the two world wars with the population being urged to cultivate every spare bit of land from parks to bomb craters. But to really understand our relationship with these spaces we need to go back much further in time. Lally Snow has written a book called My Family and Other Seedlings and in this episode she tells us how she has woven this history into her own experiences of growing food on an allotment with the aid of 3 under 5 year olds.Buy me a coffeeProduced and Presented by Sally FlatmanMusic: Fade to Black Howard Levy Mentioned in this episode:Buy Me A CoffeeBuy me a CoffeeBuy me a Coffee is a way to support me to make this podcast and every virtual coffee you buy goes towards Our Plant Stories.

The Sun is a major figure in Cherokee mythology; the world depends upon her light and warmth, but is at the mercy of her brutal heat when she is slighted by her brother, the Moon. In this story, recorded from the Eastern Band of Cherokee in the late 19th century, a plan to stop the Sun from burning the world leads to the death of her daughter, and a plan to bring her back from the Ghost Country. Common characters to Native American mythology including the Great Horned Serpent appear in a tale with strong connections to the natural world and Cherokee history.

David Gedye's mum told him a plant story when he was just 10 years old. It involved a very famous Monkey Puzzle tree and his great great grandfather, a head gardener. That story has led him on a lifetime trail, 68 years so far, to learn more about head gardener Philip Frost and to find out about that tree. Could the story be true - did his great great grandfather carry Monkey Puzzle seed in a tin in his waistcoat pocket and plant the famous Dropmore Monkey Puzzle tree?He shares his story here. Do take a look at the episode page on the website to see the wonderful photograph of David's great great grandfather beside the tree.

"What is a Purdom" by Vicky Aspin's own admission this was her first reaction to being sent to the Purdom bed in Holehird gardens. Then her curiosity was aroused by a name plaque on a bench: For Three Native Lakeland Gardeners, William Purdom and sons William and Harry and from that her hunt began...who was William Purdom?Her searches before the era of the internet, led her eventually to China and the Purdom Memorial Forest Park and you can hear the story of her search and Purdom's life in this Offshoot episode recorded on a sunny Autumn day, sitting on the Purdom bench in Holehird Gardens in Cumbria.

I'd like to transport you to Levens Hall and a garden that was created in 1694 when topiary was the height of fashion and taste. Over the intervening 329 years this Lake District garden has had only 10 Head Gardeners and each has cared for and clipped that topiary. We first met the current head gardener, Chris Crowder, in Episode 8 in conversation with Diana Boston about the slow nature of gardening with topiary. You can of course listen to that Plant Story and its Offshoot. Hearing Chris talk about his annual job of clipping some 100 pieces of topiary was fascinating, so I went to find out more. I hope you enjoy this visit to the garden and you can see photographs on the website.Produced and Presented by Sally FlatmanMusic: Fade to Black by Howard Levy

Dans cet épisode, Philippe Bergonzo revient sur sa carrière, débutée à la Galerie japonaise Yoshii à Paris, où il a découvert les codes japonais et ses différents projets au Japon depuis 1998. Il nous présente l'événement satellite KG+ qu'il a lancé avec l'équipe de Kyotographie dès la première édition du festival, KG+ Select, et le label Offshoot, tout en évoquant sa galerie Tsubomido, son activité de courtage (vente en direct d'œuvres d'art à des collectionneurs) et nous dévoile le projet de résidence à Venise de son frère Renaud Bergonzo. À travers ses expériences, il nous dévoile le marché de l'art japonais, très particulier et difficile à appréhender centré sur la confiance et la culture des "giri" (entre le renvoi d'ascenseur et la dette d'honneur), ainsi que les galeries de locations ("kasigaro") et les ventes aux enchères devenues accessibles aux non professionnels. Dans cet épisode, nous avons aussi abordé des aspects de la culture de l'image au Japon à travers des observations du quotidien. Bonne écoute !

We return to two lovely florists with a passion for flowers in this Offshoot episode. We first met Hannah and Maya in Episode 9, when Hannah told us the story of her plant tattoos, which honour and remind her of her mum. Maya introduced us to floriography - the language of flowers. Hannah offered to take me to New Covent Garden Market where she goes to buy flowers which is a place I have always wanted to go. So this Offshoot takes us to the market and hears more from Hannah and Maya about working as florists.You can see pictures of New Covent Garden Market on the website.Music: Fade to Black by Howard Levy
