Episode notes

To cope with the grief after losing her nan to cancer in 2017, Emma Bailey did something she’d never considered before. She started gardening.


As a city-dweller with limited gardening experience, Emma was surprised at how growing her own fruit and vegetables made her feel.


Emma started sharing some of her allotment fails and successes online, and quickly attracted a loyal following.


She chats to Jimmy about gardening tips, tricks and techniques, flamboyant sheds, and her on-going battle with slugs and snails!
