    We took For What It's Earth to the heart of the Yeo Valley's first ever Garden Festival to chat about something every gardener’s thinking about: climate change. From exploring the power of ponds and trees as temperature control systems, to tips for building resilient soil, and planting for biodiversity, we explore how our gardens can adapt to, as well as fight back against, a changing world.

    Nuts: Superfood, climate problem, or sustainable solution?

    Shell we go a little bit nuts together? This food group is having a bit of a *moment*; equally at home in our diets and social media feeds. We're told they're fantastic for our health, but they can also cause environmental damage. It's only natural that Emma and Sophie should investigate. Plus, squirrel season is in full swing: Many tasty morsels are in season right now in the UK (think hazel nuts, walnuts), and some inedible nuts that still have brilliant natural uses, like horse chestnut (also known as a conker). Yes, there will be foraging tips in this episode.   Get in touch We're on Instagram, Bluesky, and email forwhatitsearthpod@gmail.com.
