In this episode, we interview BBC 2's Gardening Guru Terry Walton from The Rhonnda about his worms and life on his allotment. He also shares some great tips on how to get the best out of your worm casts and liquid feed.
KEY TAKEAWAYS
You'll learn all about making your own compost and what Yorkshire Boarding is. Also Monty talks Biobeds and BioFilters and how they solve the problem of cleaning our sprayers on the farm.
ABOUT THE SHOW
At this difficult time we are not allowing visitors onto Lower Blakemere Farm, but don't fret you can still get a peek into life on the Wiggly farm with our New Wiggly Podcast! If you're as sad as we are about The Archers skipping a day, then we've got your Friday fix right here.
Each Friday, join the Gorringes (The Archers of Blakemere) for a new episode - including Heather's wiggly updates, the farming catch-up with Farmer Phil, the return of the (now older) Monty Cast and lots of other interviews!
So run a bath (or whatever you do when you listen to podcasts) settle in and let us invite you for a slice of country life from the heart of Herefordshire.
At one point The Wiggly Podcast was the #1 gardening Podcast on iTunes and even made it onto the homepage - Episode 1-259 is available on our YouTube page here https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCEWATYQw9bKMvl0ogBKWh4Q

ABOUT THE TEAM
Heather Phil and Monty live on Lower Blakemere Farm in rural Herefordshire. The farm is 650 acres and part of The Duchy of Cornwall estate. There are several diversifications on the farm - the main ones are The Great British Florist and Wiggly Wigglers.
These small ecommerce businesses are run by Heather, San, Rach, Rob and Lydia. Wiggly Wigglers aim is to Bring your Garden back to Life with worm and bokashi composting, garden bird food and other ideas to encourage a wilder garden.
The Great British Florist grows, and makes garden bouquets and posies daily on the farm which are sent all over the UK to hopefully deliver a Brighter Day!

HELP CHARITIES
Here at Wiggly HQ we are always keen to support wildlife and we know you are as well. Bringing our gardens to life has always been a fundamental principal of what we do – whether that is using worms or micro-organisms to compost our waste or simply feed the birds.
We realised early on we needed to do our bit here to help these situations and so we have pledged our support in two ways:
1: We will give £1 for every order over £30 received during this crisis
2: We will add a box onto our order form where you the customer can add a donation which we can add to the fund.This is going really well and so far we have accumulated over £1000 and so we are ready to give out the first set of grants.
