Lucy and Saul are fully aware that the world has taken a monumental shift - the Coronavirus outbreak has left our little bit of the world in Horticulture reeling both personally and professionally. So we both decided that instead of our longer format episodes every 3 weeks or so - we going to record shorter podcasts, through the week, to bring you a slice of our lives at East Donyland Hall and Stonelands and beyond - trying to bring a little bit of spring and sunshine to your eardrums.

The first unusual week of the UK lockdown has passed at Stonelands and East Donyland Hall, so Lucy and Saul take a look back to what they've been up to while getting used to this new normal. They also have a chat about future work in their respective gardens, reflect on the new upsurge in gardening interest from the general public and what new ways gardeners are keeping in contact with each on a personal and professional level.
