Episode Synopsis
Helen Cross - Grow, Cook, Inspire!
Hello and welcome back to a brand new season - we’re back for a whopping fifth season of the podcast with new guests and brand new stories and conversations with some people you will definitely know, and some people you’ll come to know
In this week’s episode, we’re bringing it back to basics and understanding the fundamentals of why we should be getting children gardening! This week I’m joined by gardener, writer and RHS School Gardening Champion, Helen Cross. Helen is a passionate about bringing gardening to the forefront of the curriculum but she’s also impassioned about something else too growing your own food and creating delicious meals with those ingredients! In this conversation we talk in depth about Helen’s book ‘Grow, Cook, Inspire’ – a book dedicated to the highs and lows of seasonal growing!
If you’d like to find out more from Helen then you can follow her on Instagram @grow_cook_inspire and you’ll also find more information on her website growcookinspire.com. Helen’s book also called ‘Grow, Cook, Inspire’ is available online and in all good bookshops.
