Show Notes

As the Coronovirus pandemic has changed many aspects of life over the past three months, the gardens and green spaces all across the UK have continued in full glory over the spring - but Summer has arrived and for many the outdoors is the sanctuary from the continued uncertainty of what lies ahead. Head Gardeners Saul and Lucy have still been full at work at Stonelands and Easy Donyland (as well as their own gardens) and continue to share their lives as professional Horticulturists, there tips and tricks and their observations of their gardening lives.

As Head Gardeners Lucy and Saul have to take the health and safety of their gardens very seriously - especially with a small staff on their private estates - so with Lucy hurting her back (something Saul has suffered from frequently in his career) they have a discussion on why looking after your body and being aware of the risks involved in our line of work is very important especially for a long, healthy career.

We also mention that the National Garden Scheme has some gardens reopening, but only for timed tickets that can be booked on their website - click here to see whats opne in your area.
