ABOUT THIS PODCAST 🔗
Welcome to The VeggiePlot Podcast. I’m Chris, and I share my journey of growing fruit, vegetables and flowers here in the UK, blending practical guidance with the stories, history and psychological side of growing your own food. It’s a friendly, chatty space where I talk about what I’m sowing, tending or learning, and where I sit down with guests from across the gardening community to explore their experiences too. If you’re looking for inspiration, motivation and a genuine sense of belonging among fellow growers, you’re very welcome here—and I’m glad to have you along.
