Hello! Lish and Adrienne here.

2020 has been a bit of a whirlwind, we hope you’re going okay.

Spring has officially arrived, and we’ve been working hard behind the scenes to bring you some fresh new content! Many of us are spending more time at home, so we’ve joined forces with the Floriade: Reimagined team to bring you an exciting new podcast to celebrate our favourite spring festival in a socially safe way.

Join us each week from 17 September – 8 October with some exciting guests talking all things food, lifestyle and gardening. You can tune in weekly via Apple Podcasts, the Spotify app or online here.

We hope you enjoy our Floriade inspired podcast series – Tweet us your thoughts @lishfejer and @AdiFrancisABC, we’d love to know what you think!

Until next time, stay safe,
Lish and Adrienne
