Happy National Science Week! I think the best place to start this week is from where I left off last week, down in Southwest WA on my way to the Nannup Flower and Garden Festival. I arrived in time for what was a Friday evening at the local brewery, and it was titled ‘Costa and Friends’. It was a happy evening that wasn’t really structured in a formal way but was an opportunity for me to share a few yarns with the crowd and bring up to the microphone and share some time with some of the other guest speakers, performers, local artists and specialists.

The days are getting longer and the soil is warming! It’s time to get on top of those transition-season jobs to prepare for the spring rush!

With the official start of spring just around the corner, Jane gets into some last-minute winter maintenance to keep flowering perennials thriving.

Hannah shares tips on choosing, using and caring for garden hand tools.

Tammy lets you in on the plants that landscape designers love to use, so that you can create a stylish and luxe look at your place.

We meet Brenton See - an artist who takes his nature-inspired works to the streets and walls of Western Australia.

With a bit of planning and design, you can create a garden that can be enjoyed not only by people, but also the local wildlife!

This week, we’re heading back to 2008! In this episode, Jerry plants different varieties of beans and explains crop rotation, Josh shows how to grow no-dig caged potatoes and Colin Campbell meets volunteers from the Pine River Project.
