Happy Holidays!

2023 has been a rollercoaster of a year, and we here at The Good Dirt thank you for everything over the past few months. For our Day 1 fans to our New Listeners, we welcome you. To celebrate, Mary and Emma reflect on the top three episodes of the past year and share what their big takeaways were from each one. From Mary Reynolds, a reformed landscape designer advocating for restorative gardening, and Owen Wormser, who shares his expertise on transforming lawns into meadows, to the Maria Rodale's wisdom in Love, Nature, Magic. They also delve into the enlightening conversation with Floris Van Hees and Ivar Smits, Dutch sailing partners on a mission to document positive environmental actions around the world. Join Mary and Emma as they reflect back on the year and look forward to a new beginning.
