Description

This week we unpack the secret behind my favorite garden amendment as of late - wool pellets. They are SUCH a triple threat - holding moisture, repelling slugs, and slow-releasing nitrogen. We talk to Megan, the founder of Kestrel Ridge Pellet Co., who started her business as a way to make use of the incredibly wasteful wool industry. The wool by-products that come from either unsellable or undesirable wool make for fantastic fertilizer. When pelleted, it's easy for the home gardener to use. Megan walks us through how she got started in this business, and why wool does in fact make such a great amendment.

The Garden Culture Podcast is more than just a how-to garden podcast, this is a place where we let the garden inspire our lives, as well as get to know incredible people who infuse their own lives with the magic of nature and gardening. Follow along as we talk about what to do in the garden each month and interview interesting people who weave gardening into their lives. Our host, Bailey Van Tassel, is a home gardener and the founder of a national gardening club. Her goal is to get more people gardening, especially in suburbia and small spaces, as she has. Bailey's mission is to make gardening an American pastime and a part of our innate culture. Her hope is to have more families raise their kids with a reverence for nature and an instinct for growing their own food and flowers.
