Listen "Black in the Garden on *City Lights* with Lois Reitzes"
Episode Synopsis
As we close out the year, we’re excited to share a special conversation between *Black in the Garden* host Colah B. Tawkin and WABE’s City Lights* with Lois Reitzes. In this inspiring interview, Colah reflects on her personal journey, her deep love for plants, and the importance of always striving and growing—both in life and in the garden. While the cultivation and care of plants are universal, the discourse around horticulture often amplifies privileged voices while overlooking others. That’s where *Black in the Garden* stands out. Hosted by Colah B. Tawkin—gardener, researcher, and “plantrepreneur”—this podcast uplifts the experiences and expertise of Black gardeners, farmers, and plantkeepers, sharing underrepresented stories of resilience, growth, and achievement. Tune in to hear Colah’s reflections and insights as she continues to amplify fresh perspectives within the plant world.
