Talking Heads - a Gardening Podcast
Ep. 275 - It's the start of the Summer holidays, and with Lucy away, Saul takes you on a little Saturday Trip to the Beach, his Garden and The Story of Emily.....
Summer in 2025 is here - and after one of the sunniest and driest Springs on record, we enter the long days and sultry nights with the garden looking glorious but always looking to the horizon for a little bit of rain to keep things looking green and lush. Herbaceous borders are set to maximum colour, vegetable beds seem to multiply in growth weekly and the gardeners tan is ever present. So enjoy the long summer days, take some time to appreciate time in your garden and join the Talking Heads pair as they continue to look after the spaces they are in charge of, as well as enjoying their gardens at home.
The school Summer holidays have started in the UK which means Lucy and her family have gone for a well deserved break to Beaulieu, a place familiar to all listeners. But that means Saul is on his own and bringing you along on his Saturday shenanigans down at the Beach and at the Story of Emily, a brand new garden and museum in West Cornwall, all while trying to fit some horticulture waffle in - a bracing dip, some jungle garden action and raucous folk music abound!
