Meet Our Favourite Vegetable Varieties to Develop
On this episode we’re digging into our all-time favourite vegetable varieties, those we are able to’t think about our gardens (or dinner plates) being with out: from not one, however two improved ‘Brandywine’-type heirloom tomatoes, to a cucumber that by no means fails to impress on the summer time picnic. Carol even shares her must-have inexperienced bean selection (and tries to persuade Danielle that it doesn’t style like wooden). We rounded out the hour with private tales, rising ideas, and some stunning twists on how you can fight a few dreaded veggie pests.
