Zoe & Kerry Go Mushroom Foraging

This past summer was alarmingly dry and our growing spaces really suffered. In this episode, we look into what we can put in place before next summer to conserve water, and how we can use it more wisely. Plus, we discover that Zoe is an early adopter of a rare and terrifying-sounding plant pest…

Pest issue, fungal disease, bacterial disease, too wet, too dry, too sunny, too shady: why won’t our sad-looking plants just tell us what’s wrong?! Pippa gives us tips on how to diagnose their issues, and when action is necessary. Plus, the recent long, hot summer means water saving is top of mind for our listeners.
