In this very raw, personal episode we talk about the very real well-being benefits that growing things can bring.  This is a subject that is often talked about in a very abstract way, so much so that there is a risk of this becoming a cliche, something that we take for granted or even worse dismiss as 'virtue signalling'.

We talk about real stories of hope that stem from the joy of growing.

In this episode, we travel back in time to talk about the gardening and growing adventures of the Vikings. The Viking era was a fascinating one and Andy really wanted to talk about what the Vikings grew, how growing informed and changed their society but most importantly - asking what did the Vikings eat to make them so crazy when they went into battle.  

Grab a cup of mead and jump on board the long boat.  We are sailing towards the Viking Era.
