In this inspiring episode, Roz reconnects with Andy from Urban Herbs, 18 months after their first chat, to dive into how his herb-growing business has evolved in unexpected and beautiful ways.

Now joined by his wife as a co-leader in the business, Andy reflects on how this partnership has brought fresh energy, clarity, and new ideas to Urban Herbs.

They dig into:

  • How herbs offer emotional healing and spark deep nostalgia
  • The overlooked second season of herb planting
  • Creative and beautiful ways herbs are now being used in cut flower arrangements and wedding bouquets
  • Why growing herbs in urban front gardens isn’t just practical—but a powerful act of resilience
  • How climate change may be opening new possibilities for growers
  • And the exciting future of Urban Herbs, with a focus on education, community connection, and turning knowledge into empowerment.

Whether you're a cut flower grower, a gardener, or simply herb-curious, this episode is full of fresh inspiration, smart tips, and grounded advice to grow something good.
