Jekka McVicar - Queen Of Herbs

35 minutes

Jekka McVicar - Queen of Herbs!

Hello and welcome back to a brand new season - we’re back for a whopping sixth season of the podcast with new guests and brand new stories and conversations and this time I'm using this as my chance to celebrate the amazing women of horticulture with a season I'm calling 'A Celebration of Women in Plants'!

Now we’re kicking this season off with a huge guest and someone I’ve wanted to talk to since the podcast first began. This week I’m joined by herb fanatic and who I'd like to dub, the Queen Of Herbs - Jekka McVicar. Jekka is an absolute treasure trove of information when it comes to sowing, growing, propagating and cultivating herbs of an almost endless number of varieties. In this episode we discuss it all, and we talk about Jekka's excellent new book.

Jekka's new book '100 Herbs To Grow is out on 7th March and you can order it by clicking here.

Don't forget, you can find Jekka on Instagram @⁠jekkamcvicar for all of that Herby goodness!
