Listen "Lucy Hutchings - She Grows Veg!"
Episode Synopsis
Hello and welcome back to a brand-new season - we’re back for a whopping sixth season of the podcast with new guests and brand-new stories and conversations and this time I'm using this as my chance to celebrate the amazing women of horticulture with a season I'm calling 'A Celebration of Women in Plants'!
Throughout this season I’ve spoken to and will speak to many people who started their working life, without even a thought given to plants from the start. However, they have found gardening and the joy of plants slightly later in life and as a secondary career and my guest this week did exactly that. Lucy Hutchings, otherwise known as She Grows Veg on social media is known both for her beautiful Instagram page and also now, her heritage seed company. In this episode, we discuss how Lucy and Monty aren’t all that dissimilar, why she loves veg so much and much more. We also do a bit of a deep dive into social media too which lots of you will find quite interesting too. Enjoy!
You can find out more from Lucy by following her on Instagram where you’ll find her as @shegrowsveg. You can find out more about Lucy’s seed company, and perhaps get yourself a couple of packets from shegrowsveg.com
