Welcome to the Spring edition of Slow Food, the podcast! Are you feeling the itch to get your hands dirty and start growing some fresh veggies or fragrant flowers? You're not alone! In today's episode, we're diving into the world of gardening. We'll explore how school gardens are transforming communities in Nigeria and the USA, and we'll get our green thumbs in gear with practical tips from the Frenchie Gardener on how to grow your own food, even if you live in a city apartment with only a balcony to spare. Did you also get the basil trauma when after a week or so the basil plant you bought miserably died? No worries: it was not your fault and we’ll tell you why! So roll up your sleeves and get ready to dig in! This is an episode you won't want to miss.
