Hops and Hedges

Ep.3. Darren Heimbecker, Whistling Gardens


Listen Later

In this episode, I'm talking with Darren Heimbecker (and his pup Lego) from Whistling Gardens in Wilsonville, Ontario CANADA. We discuss his experience transforming a corn field into one of the most magical (and one of my personal favourite) places to visit in Southwestern Ontario, some of his favourite plants and of course - BEER!


*Peony Show* There are over 1,300 varieties of peonies in the garden! Follow them online and be sure to visit this incredible collection when it is blooming!


Sorry Darren that I cut you off at the end!!! AHHH! Still learning how to record these darn things. Yay! Technology!
