In this episode, I chat with Paula Wiseman, founder of Grow Wise Microgreens — a passionate grower based near Gin Gin in Queensland, Australia! Paula shares how her journey from firefighting led her to discover permaculture and dive head-first into growing nutrient-rich microgreens. We explore how anyone can start growing microgreens at home, with simple setups and tips that make it fun for kids and beginners alike.

Paula breaks down the basics of germination, lighting, trays, and harvesting, and explains how microgreens can be a gateway to real food growing and deeper connection with healthy eating. Whether you’re curious about microgreens, permaculture principles, or encouraging kids to grow food, this episode is full of practical advice and plenty of inspiration to help you get started!
