Talking Heads - a Gardening Podcast
Bonus Episode #3: Lucy and Saul in conversation with Tom Brown - Head Gardener at West Dean Gardens, West Sussex - we talk about his career from RHS Wisley to West Dean and how he and the garden is coping with the current health crisis...
From time to time Lucy and Saul decided they wanted to record conversations with other Head Gardeners, Curators, Garden Owners and fellow horticulturists across the UK, these will be published as Bonus Episodes alongside their usual format of chatting about their gardening lives. We hope you enjoy.
For the Bonus Episode #3 we're really pleased to welcome Tom Brown, new(ish) Head Gardener at West Dean Gardens in West Sussex. Tom shares his gardening journey from work in the Plant Shop at Wisley, through supervising the Trial Grounds, taking the big step into head gardening at Parham House, to taking on one of the UK's most celebrated gardens at West Dean, where his first full season in charge hasn't quite gone as planned - but he's making the most of it!
