Plant therapy, ants and new garden adventures with @yourorganicPT

Hello, and welcome back for season 2 of Diaries of a Lady Gardener!

If you think gardening is cool and would rather take a trip to the garden centre than go out out, then you’ve found the right podcast. But also, you’re not in the minority. 

Research from Draper Tools has revealed that over 80% of young people officially think gardening is cool, mainly because of its benefits for mental health and the environment. 

Draper Tools are back for season 2 as sponsors of the Diaries of a Lady Gardener podcast, so why not join me in following them on Instagram, “at Draper underscore tools”?

In this episode, I had the pleasure of chatting with one of the most passionate, inspiring and enthusiastic growers on Instagram. Lydia, otherwise known as @youroganicpt (or in my case, the onion wiggle lady) is an organic grower, personal trainer and medical herbalist with an incredible skill for storytelling - although the fact that her story is a good one definitely helps. We lost the best part of an evening to chats about amazing ants, ridiculously exciting botanical garden projects and our sheer love of plants. You’re going to love this one.

Chatting to Lydia was honestly one of those experiences where you just instantly bond with someone over a shared passion. I cannot wait to visit the Healing garden and watch her new adventure bloom, if you don’t already follow her on Instagram, definitely check out @yourorganicPT because her account really is something special and what’s to come is going to be AMAZING! Best of luck Lydia!
