What delicious snacks are you leaving unclaimed in your hedge? Fat hen: weed or cultural heritage? How has Covid-19 changed our relationship with nature? PPL PWR’s gardening expert, Danny Hubbard, answers these questions and more in this month’s PPL PWR podcast.
Danny is now working at Walworth Garden and runs a series of publicly available workshops including foraging and basic gardening.
Resources mentioned in the podcast:
- The books 'Food For Free' and 'Weeds' by Richard Mabey
- Foraging rules in the UK
- OrganicLea
- During the podcast, we confused the London Loop with the London Green Chain Walk but both are worth a look.
