“Be kind to people and treat your beer well.”It's been an emotional few days for Nemesia Dale-Cully – or Meesh as she's known to most. For almost half a decade, she's been running the venue at Wildflower in Marrickville, where they bade farewell to their last customers on May 31.We took the opportunity to chat to Meesh ahead of the closing weekend, not just to reflect on her time at Wildflower but also to find out what she believes goes into creating a great hospitality experience – both for staff and customers.Her insights have been earned over a period in which she swapped running events at libraries for bar shifts at Sweet Amber in Adelaide, which led to working at Pirate Life as the brewery swapped its OG Hindmarsh home for its Port Adelaide behemoth, then being headhunted by Shapeshifter as they set up home, before swapping Adelaide for Sydney's Inner West.Her advice ranges from the importance of respect, kindness and “meeting people where they are”, to cleanliness and theatre. And we go deeper too, with Meesh one of the most respected voices in the beer community on diversity and inclusivity, not least when businesses or individuals – on either side of the bar – fail to meet even basic standards of civility.There was big news in the world of big beer this week, with Lion announcing they're to cease brewing at James Boag Brewery in Launceston, while in the world of indie beer, the IBA revealed they‘re switching the focus of their Indies awards from liquid to people, and our Building A Brewery series returned for a third chapter.With Pint of Origin wrapped up, we've lined up a bunch of new specials for members of our Crafty Cabal beer club, so if you'd like to boost your beer experience while supporting us on our good beer mission, feel free to sign up.

Send us Fan MailWhat if Washington's most overlooked landscape isn't a towering evergreen forest — but a sun-baked sea of sagebrush bursting with far more life than you'd ever expect?Cyrus Philbrick and Bridget Clark of Cowiche Canyon Conservancy join us at Snow Mountain Ranch to talk about the shrub-steppe — the vanishing ecosystem this nonprofit land trust has spent 40+ years protecting across 8,000+ acres and 60+ miles of free trails just outside Yakima.We get into how a community-driven land trust grows acre by acre, from a defunct railroad through Cowiche Canyon to the recent Konnowac Pass acquisition. Cyrus walks us through the two-volcano geology that carved the canyon's basalt and andesite cliffs, while Bridget shares how this landscape thrives on a quarter of the west side's rainfall.We also dig into the work that keeps this place wild: the battle against invasive cheatgrass and scotch thistle, the volunteers and school kids who make conservation personal, and a commitment to equity through Spanish-language wildflower walks that open the outdoors to all of Yakima. Plus their must-do weekend hikes and when to catch peak wildflowers.If you've ever driven east of the pass and written off the sagebrush, this episode will change how you see it.Episode Links:Cowiche Canyon Conservancy WebsiteCowiche Canyon Conservancy on FacebookCowiche Canyon Conservancy on InstagramThis episode was Produced by Jordyn Smith, follow her on Instagram @jordyn.journeysFollow us on Instagram, @HikesandmicsThis episode's music was created by Ketsa, follow him on Instagram @Ketsamusic AllTrails+I'm excited to share that I'm now a Trailheads Ambassador for AllTrails+!

What happens when a community garden becomes a lifeline for people, wildlife and an entire neighbourhood? In this episode, I'm chatting with Oliver Hayden from Walworth Garden about running a free community space in the heart of London, why gardening can drive real social change, and how reconnecting with nature can quietly transform lives. It's funny, thought-provoking and full of big questions about the way we live and garden.

This week we start off by discussing our favorite cars from our lives that we owned or family owned. Then the Main event of the episode is up as we interview Tommy Dorfman (Tommy Dee) of Juice Entertainment about his 16 year legal battle with Live Nation. This is a fascinating story that any fan of live entertainment of any sort should look into and know what Tommy has been up against. He's an inspiration fighting against a giant corporation. in reviews, we talk about the movie Man on Fire with Denzel Washington and the album Wildflowers by Tom Petty.

We wrap up the week with Culture Brewing and a truly one of a kind collab with Coastal Roots Farm in Encinitas. A Spring seasonal beer that features handpicked elderflower from Coastal Roots creating a fruity and floral IPA. Best part, a portion of the proceeds from each beer goes to support Coast Roots efforts.

Why are pollinators, like bees and butterflies, so important to the garden, and how do we encourage their presence? And why are native plants and wildflowers so important, instead of just buying what might look pretty at the store? Dr. Parry Kietzman, Associate Professor in the Department of Biological Sciences at Olivet Nazarene University, and also co-director of the Olivet Biological Sanctuary, joins Megan on the podcast to answer all these questions with helpful tips to benefit pollinators!

I loved that Samantha focused on how easy it is to see things as God's will when convenience comes into play. Wildflowers by Samantha Roman The show might not go on for Candy—and maybe not even her relationship with Scott. Just when her band is finally gaining traction, Candy is about to lose her spot. Then a devastating fire destroys the Chancellor Homes building, turning Honeybrook upside down and tearing open wounds she thought had healed. As a buried family secret rises from the ashes, Candy stands at a crossroads: walk away from her music to save the people she loves… or keep chasing the dream that once felt God-given. When an unexpected "wildflower" appears in her path, she begins to wonder if God still blesses broken roads—and whether they still lead to the cross. For fans of Christian YA fiction, faith-based coming-of-age stories, and clean teen romance with a strong spiritual core, Candy's journey in Wildflowers is a heartfelt look at what it means to follow God when everything is falling apart. Dead men tell no tales… or do they? Leslie's past comes roaring back when a thirty-year-old mistake resurfaces, ending her fragile peace. A teenage accident she can't undo collides with a present-day crisis no mother could ignore. And when she meets Chris, a man who brings unexpected light into her dark season, she must choose between protecting him… or risking everything to love again. As mother and daughter face the secrets, sins, and second chances that refuse to stay buried, they'll discover that even in the wreckage, wildflowers still grow. Wildflowers is Book Two in the Honeybrook High series, a small-town Christian young adult saga that began with Butterflies, a novel about grief, hope, and redemption. This second installment deepens Candy and Leslie's story with more family drama, stronger faith themes, and a reminder that God can redeem even the worst mistakes. Christian YA novel with dual POV (teen daughter and mom) Clean teen fiction Perfect for readers who love small-town Christian fiction Explores grief, forgiveness, family secrets, and second chances Ideal for Christian teens, moms, youth groups, and book clubs If you enjoy emotional Christian YA series with real-life struggles and hopeful, faith-filled endings, you'll love returning to Honeybrook in Wildflowers.

This weeks sponsors: Probio Carbon enriched biocharhttps://www.probiocarbon.ieSeeds Ireland High Quality Seeds: See link below for listener offer. https://seedsireland.ie/masterA wildflower meadow sounds simple until you try to do it in a housing estate or community green space, where everyone has a different idea of what “nice” looks like. We walk through the real behind-the-scenes work that turns a well-meaning plan into a meadow that lasts, from agreeing the purpose to getting residents, committees, and maintenance teams on the same page.We also clear up one of the biggest sources of confusion: many “wildflower” seed packets are actually short-term floral meadow mixes designed for summer colour. They can be lovely, but they often need re-sowing and won't build a stable ecosystem. A native Irish wildflower meadow, using Irish provenance seed, behaves differently and gives deeper biodiversity benefits, supporting pollinators, insects, and bird life through nectar, habitat, and seed heads. We talk through what meadows look like outside peak bloom, and how to help people see “untidy” as a sign of life rather than neglect.From there we get practical: choosing a suitable location (especially if it's shaded or wet), starting from vegetation-free bare ground, and when “No Mow May” can work and when it just produces long grass. We share the best sowing times (September first, May second), ways to improve the look with spring bulbs, and the essential maintenance step of cutting once a year and removing clippings to keep fertility down. If you're planning a meadow in Ireland, we also point you towards the All-Ireland Pollinator Plan resources and signage that make community buy-in much easier.If this helped, subscribe for more straightforward gardening advice, share it with your local group, and leave a review so more people can find the show.Master My Garden Grow Your Own Wildflower Meadow Online Course: https://mastermygarden.com/grow-your-own-wildflower-meadow/If there is any topic you would like covered in future episodes, please let me know.

To celebrate Earth Day, we're looking at how we as gardeners can make small changes to benefit the world around us. Nick Turrell and Jenny Laville will be digging into the topic of food waste, exploring how composting and changing our habits can make a big difference to our ecological footprints. RHS horticultural advisor Jenny Bowden offers an alternative, biodiversity-friendly approach if you find a traditional wildflower meadow just doesn't work for you.

Hershey's legacy. Listeners will also hear about the Theatre's rich history, upcoming 2026 performances, behind‑the‑scenes Spotlight Tours, and why Hershey Theatre remains a cultural cornerstone for Central Pennsylvania.

This week, biologist David George Haskell brings us into the tangled histories and biological rhythms of four wildflowers that grow around his home in Atlanta, Georgia, revealing how each is rooted within webs of innovative, reciprocal relationships between hummingbirds, puddles, bee tongues, and human hands. Tracing how these heralds of spring have adapted to new climate conditions and new neighbors, he invites us to seek the stories of the flowers where we live to ground ourselves in the shifting realities shaping us too.Read the essay.

If you've ever avoided saying yes to something meaningful because you were waiting to feel less anxious or more “ready,” this episode is for you.Cohosts Yael and Michael Herold sit down for a chat about his confidence-building online course and the misconceptions that keep people stuck, especially the idea that motivation and the “right mindset” must come first. You'll hear how acceptance and commitment therapy reframes anxiety as a passenger you can bring along while you drive toward your values, why rigid social scripts don't work, and how low-stakes “comfort zone challenges” (like lying down in public) help you practice courage, defuse unhelpful thoughts, and tolerate discomfort without real-world consequences.Join Michael and Yael for lots of practical insight, humor, and a preview of tools that can help you step into the life you want.Listen and Learn: Why confidence isn't built by fixing your mindset first, but by taking action on what mattersWhy you can't learn confidence from scripts or perfect phrases, and confidence only develops through practice, not preparationHow to step outside your comfort zone by practicing small, low-stakes challenges that reveal how thoughts and emotions create avoidance, and how to disarm them so you can act on what matters instead of defaulting to fear-based reactionsWhy worrying about annoying others can hold you back from confidence, and learning confidence means acting respectfully on what matters, even when that fear is presentComfort-zone challenges to expand confidence and even meaningfully change the direction of your lifeBuilding confidence through practical, real-world exercises with Michael's courseResources: Michael's Course: herold.coach/courseLilly and the Wildflowers:www.instagram.com/lilyandthewildflowerswww.lilyandthewildflowers.comAbout Michael HeroldMichael (he/him) is a confidence trainer and social skills coach, based in Vienna, Austria. He's helping his clients overcome their social anxiety through Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) and fun exposure exercises. (Though the jury is still out on whether they're mostly fun for him). He is also a certified therapeutic game master, utilizing the Dungeons&Dragons tabletop roleplaying game to train communication, assertiveness, and teamwork with young adults.

In a previous life, he was a character animator working on award-winning movies and TV shows such as “The Penguins of Madagascar” and “Kung Fu Panda”. That was before he realized that helping people live a meaningful life is much more rewarding than working in the film business – even though the long nights in the studio allowed him to brew his own beer in the office closet, an activity he highly recommends. Michael grew up with five foster kids who were all taken out of abusive families. His foster sisters showed him how much positive change is possible in a person if they have the love and support they need.Related Episodes173.

Ten days of controlled emptiness, and Elise is dying by inches. When a little girl's grief finally cracks her walls open, she discovers something new: magic that doesn't explode. Magic that just grows. She returns to the Hartfield Estate—the scene of her destruction—and finds Roman waiting. Together, they begin to shape the chaos into something intentional. A wild garden. A new beginning. A life that doesn't require her to be small. Three months later, the garden opens to the public. Elise stands at the center of something she created—not by controlling it, but by becoming it. She's finally learned the truth: she was never too much. She was just a garden waiting for the right conditions to bloom.Unlock an ad-free podcast experience with Caloroga Shark Media! Get all our shows on any player you love, hassle free!

Nature File returns to the airwaves this week, celebrating the blossoming of woodland wildflowers. White flowered wood-sorrel and wood anemone; glistening yellow lesser celandine and of course, violet coloured violets and bluebells, all making the most of April.

On this episode of The Bandwich Tapes, I sit down with guitarist, singer, and songwriter Trey Hensley, and it's a conversation I've been looking forward to for a long time. Trey has built a reputation as one of the most electrifying acoustic guitar players around, and we talk about the moment he finds himself in now—stepping back into a solo role after a decade performing as part of a duo. He's candid about what that transition felt like at first and how embracing that shift has opened the door to new creative possibilities.A big part of our conversation centers on feel and energy in recordings. Trey and I dig into why so many of the records we love breathe and move in ways that feel alive—often recorded without a click track—and why some of that electricity can disappear when studio perfection becomes the goal. It's a thoughtful discussion about spontaneity, musical trust, and the value of leaving room for human feel.We also talk about his upcoming album Can't Outrun the Blues, releasing March 6. The record leans heavily into an acoustic-forward sound, with most of the performances captured live in the room and minimal overdubs. Trey shares how the project came together, the importance of strong songs at the center of it all, and the collaborators who helped bring the music to life.Then we look ahead to another exciting chapter: a new electric, country-leaning project with guitarist Brian Sutton. Trey talks about what it feels like to plug in again after years of acoustic focus, the mix of intimidation and inspiration that comes from playing alongside someone like Brian, and how his time on electric guitar has quietly shaped the way he approaches the acoustic instrument.Along the way, we also get into the realities of modern musicianship—social media and the pressure to produce “content,” stage sound challenges like wedges versus in-ears, bluegrass timing tendencies, and the ongoing challenge of simply hearing yourself onstage. It's a conversation about music, but also about identity, growth, and trusting your instincts as an artist.Key TakeawaysWhat it's like for Trey Hensley to return to a solo role after a decade performing in a duo.Why many of the most beloved recordings breathe without a click track.The philosophy behind recording Can't Outrun the Blues mostly live in the room.How focusing on songs first shaped the direction of the new record.The creative spark—and challenge—of working with Brian Sutton on a more electric project.How playing electric guitar has influenced Trey's acoustic phrasing and tone.Real-world musician topics: social media pressure, stage monitoring (wedges vs. in-ears), and bluegrass timing tendencies.Music from the EpisodeCan't Outrun the Blues — Trey HensleyOne White Line at a Time — Trey HensleyTucson — Trey HensleyAbout the PodcastThe Bandwich Tapes is a long-form conversation podcast where host Brad Williams sits down with some of the most thoughtful musicians, composers, and artists working today.

Sometimes the most profound lessons about faith are found in the simplest parts of creation. Jesus pointed to wildflowers—small, fragile, and easily overlooked—to teach a powerful truth about trust and provision. In Luke 12:27, Jesus tells us to “consider how the wildflowers grow.” They do not work endlessly to secure their future. They do not worry about appearance or provision. Yet God clothes them with beauty that surpasses even the splendor of King Solomon. This invitation is more than poetic imagery—it is a challenge to our anxious hearts. So much of our energy is spent striving: trying to secure financial stability, maintain control over our circumstances, or ensure everything unfolds according to our plans. Worry can quietly dominate our thoughts, convincing us that everything depends on our effort. But the wildflowers tell another story. They grow in quiet dependence. They trust the sun to rise and the rain to fall. Without striving, they flourish exactly as God designed them. Their beauty reflects the care of the Creator who sustains them. Jesus used this image to remind His listeners that if God cares for something as small and temporary as a flower, how much more does He care for His children? Worry often pulls our attention toward what we lack or what might go wrong. But when we shift our focus to God’s provision—seen throughout creation—we remember that He is attentive, present, and faithful. Considering the wildflowers is not about ignoring real concerns. It is about remembering who ultimately holds our lives in His hands. As we seek God first, He promises to provide what we truly need. Main Takeaways Jesus used the wildflowers as a reminder of God’s faithful provision. Worry often distracts us from trusting God’s care. Creation reflects God’s attention to detail and beauty. Faith involves releasing control and trusting God’s provision. Seeking God first brings peace that replaces anxiety. Today’s Bible Verse Consider how the wild flowers grow. They do not labor or spin. Yet I tell you, not even Solomon in all his splendor was dressed like one of these. — Luke 12:27 (NIV) Your Daily Prayer Prayer excerpt for listeners: “Help me trust Your provision and release the worries I’ve been carrying.” Listen to the full prayer here.

With all the rain this winter, the wildflower forecast is looking really good — but how good, exactly? Does this qualify as a superbloom year (and why do we care so much)?

(A novel idea for us recovering perfectionists, I know . . . ) Ever start a hobby with excitement, only to face the harsh reality that you're not good at it? Welcome to my February Hobby Year update. This month I dove into sketching wildflowers, and QUICKLY discovered I'm bad at it. Really bad. But here's the twist: I promised to send these amateur drawings to new Supporters as handmade cards.

A Friend of Medjugorje shows a different dimension of the February 25, 2026, message of Our Lady, unseen by most.

As digital tools reshape the real estate industry, the landscaping sector is experiencing its own evolution. Technology and horticulture are intersecting in new ways, and ServeScape is at the center of that shift. Mario Cambardella, founder and CEO of ServeScape, joins host Carol Morgan on the Atlanta Real Estate Forum Radio podcast to discuss how the company's InstaScape platform connects homeowners directly to local growers and uses artificial intelligence (AI) to support more resilient landscape design. Cutting Out the Middleman in Landscaping Traditional plant purchasing often involves multiple intermediaries, increasing handling and reducing transparency. Cambardella launched ServeScape in 2020 to eliminate that friction while preserving plant health and quality. “I was trying to solve a broken experience, because people wanted beautiful landscapes, but the process was very fragmented,” said Cambardella. “It was intimidating, and it was disconnected from some of the best plant material, the growers. These are the people that put pride and joy into every plant that they grow.” ServeScape operates as an inventory-based online marketplace. Users enter their ZIP code to access locally available plants. Landscaping professionals receive tiered pricing, but homeowners can purchase the same commercial-grade materials for their home projects. By shipping directly from growers, ServeScape reduces handling, preserves plant health and keeps pricing competitive. The platform also manages logistics and last-mile delivery, making locally grown material even more accessible. The company is proud to serve Atlanta homeowners, churches, community organizations and local parks with expert landscaping solutions and materials. Why Planning Now Prevents Spring Landscaping Mistakes “Stop thinking of spring as the start,” said Cambardella. “Winter planning, soil prep, design decisions, plant selection — this is when spring success actually starts.” Cambardella emphasizes that waiting until spring to start your landscaping project often leads to inventory shortages and rushed decisions. Waiting until spring often results in limited inventory and rushed decisions. Late winter provides time to gather inspiration, secure designers and select plants before peak demand arrives. That is also a good time for soil amendments, mulching and installing hardy plant material such as ornamental grasses and evergreens. Gardeners can then add sensitive perennials after Atlanta's average last frost in late April. What Makes a Landscape Truly Resilient? For Cambardella, resilience means designing landscapes that thrive with minimal intervention. They should withstand heavy rains in the spring, heat and drought in the summer and changing conditions between seasons. Cambardella explains that landscaping success often comes down to placing the right plant in the right location. Locally grown plants play a critical role in achieving resilience. National retailers may source inventory from climates that differ from North Georgia's, but local growers have the plants Atlanta homeowners need. By sourcing from local growers, homeowners increase long-term survival rates and reduce frustration, replacement costs and excessive watering. InstaScape: AI-Powered Landscape Design ServeScape recently introduced InstaScape, an AI-powered design tool that helps homeowners visualize potential landscapes using plants that are available for purchase. “We see AI as a way to remove some of the friction,” said Cambardella. “We don't see AI as a replacement for a human — we still believe in the human touch.” Users upload a photo of their yard, select a design style and receive a visual rendering in minutes. Homeowners can use the AI tool independently or add professional services from ServeScape's team of landscape architects and horticulturists. Service options also allow users to scale support based on project needs. The best part? InstaScape is free to use! “There's no payment required for InstaScape,” said Cambardella. “This is a tool that we want to ignite excitement for beautiful and resilient landscapes for all.” Native, Pollinator & Edible Landscapes on the Rise Design preferences across metro Atlanta are shifting as homeowners reconsider turf-heavy yards. Cambardella said clients increasingly request landscapes that serve both aesthetic and ecological purposes. “Native and pollinator gardens are huge,” he said. “We also see a big uptick in more edible landscapes.” Instead of expansive, high-maintenance lawns, many homeowners now favor layered plantings filled with native perennials, flowering shrubs and ornamental grasses. These landscapes support birds, bees and butterflies while reducing mowing, irrigation and chemical inputs. Cambardella also noted that food-producing landscapes are gaining momentum. Kitchen gardens, fruiting shrubs and herb beds allow homeowners to harvest fresh ingredients just steps from their doors. Even small spaces can incorporate edible elements without sacrificing design. “One of the terms that we've been throwing around is food-producing landscape,” he said. “Sometimes a native — you take up some of your yard to do wildflowers or some of that — it might not be food for you, but it's food for birds and bees and butterflies.” That dual-purpose mindset appeals to homeowners who want intentional design with long-term resilience. Rather than installing plants that demand constant replacement or irrigation, they choose species adapted to Georgia's heat, drought cycles and heavy rains. This more natural, garden-forward aesthetic replaces rigid, high-maintenance lawns with landscapes that feel softer and more dynamic. Wildflower meadows, deer-resistant plantings and pollinator corridors now appear in suburban backyards across the region. The result is a landscape that balances beauty with function — one that supports local ecology, reduces maintenance demands and evolves gracefully year after year. “There's a lot of restorative power in the garden,” said Cambardella. “Bring your problem to the garden, and I promise you that there will be something there to inspire you.” Tune in to the full episode to hear how ServeScape is reshaping Atlanta's landscaping industry by connecting homeowners directly with locally grown plants and innovative design tools.
