In this weeks episode of Master My Garden podcast I chat with Gearoid Mcevoy from Reforest nation. We chat about their ambitious plan to plant 1 million trees by 2024. They are planting native trees all around Ireland trying to restore Ireland forested areas. You can support by visiting their website and gifting a tree, subscribing monthly or by volunteering at the planting days.

Families can offset their carbon footprint by having trees planted with their subscription, so while you may feel at times that you cannot help in the climate crisis here is a real tangible way to help visit

In this weeks episode of Master My Garden podcast I chat to Leonie Cornelius. Leonie is a garden designer, writer and course creator so we have lots to chat about.

Leonie chat about her new course which she has created in collaboration with flower grower Mags Riordan and chef Eddie Atwell. The course is called Design -Grow -Eat which takes you through all the stages designing your edible area, growing the crops ion that space and finally cooking those wonderful crops. Its a beautiful concept and one I think people will like.

We also chat about Leonie's design style and how her design company Wild Eden design gardens for her clients with a focus on creating moments of joy in those gardens.

It a very interesting and enjoyable chat

Episode 100 of Master My Garden Podcast. Wow this feels special to reach 100 episodes and to mark it I decided to chat to some listeners of the podcast. My original idea was to bring on a high profile gardening personality for this special episode but I changed my idea and brought it right back to the core of the podcast which is helping you in your own garden.

I want to show in this episode how the podcast has and is helping people in their gardens so I chat to three lovely listeners Imelda, Stephen and Abby. They all tell there varied gardening stories and how the podcast is helping them in their respective gardens.

I also want to thank in this episode all the super guest's who have come on the show and shared their knowledge with the listeners.

With "No Dig" gardening gaining support in many gardening circles I wanted to give my verdict after almost two years using it in my garden. The results have been really good and quiet surprising in some cases. In an area with high weed pressure I had next to no weeds. Better crops generally with less watering. Soil health has improves and in one area of really poor soil the soil is now full of earthworms through nothing else only adding fresh grass clippings.

So whatever size or type of gardening you do I feel there is huge benefit from using a No Dig approach to gardening. 

With episode 100 of Master My Garden podcast coming up I want to celebrate with you the listeners of the podcast. With that in mind I am looking for listers to tell me their gardening story and how the podcast is helping you in your garden.  Please drop me an email to [email protected] or message me through my website https://mastermygarden.com/contact/

Look forward to hearing from you to make episode 100 a great one.
