Mini Bonus Episode – Our Season 1 Guests Growing Hacks – Highlights from Season 1 of The Food Grower Podcast
2021/12/08
This is a mini bonus episode as we move towards the exciting launch of Season 2 of the podcast coming out on Thursday 16th December!! In this episode we bring you the highlights of season 1’s quick fire question: “What’s Your Favourite Growing Hack”. A brilliant response from everyone so we have brought all the answers together in one place, starting right back at the beginning with our very own Chris’ answer, unfortunately Jack wasn't asked this one back at the beginning when we were still figuring out the questions. This is a podcast that will hopefully inspire and inform you whatever experience you have… from aspiring grower, to casual allotmenteer, right through to fully fledged market gardener. We will be talking everything from no-dig to permaculture, mushrooms to marketing. We are your hosts Chris from Fanfield Farm and Jack from Jacks Patch and we will be bringing you an inspirational interview, some tips and tricks from our own farms as well as the fun feature of quick fire questions that we ask every guest…. Obviously including whether they prefer an evening farm beer or morning farm coffee!!
