    Encouraging Wildlife Into The Garden - The Back To The Good Life Podcast -S01E08

    Encouraging Wildlife Into The Garden - The Back To The Good Life Podcast -S01E08

    There's been a big decline in wildlife in recent years, and we're all guilty of planting plants that are good for us only or setting up our gardens without much thought for the wildlife.

    In this episode we talk about how we're encouraging wildlife into our garden. From newts to frogs to hedgehogs, and especially pollinators!



    We'd love your feedback too. Is there something we should be talking about? Let us know! Send us a DM on Instagram.

    Looking Forward To Spring Foraging - The Back To The Good Life Podcast - Season Episode 7

    Spring is the perfect time to get outside and learn about foraging for wild edibles. It's fun, easy, and you can find wild foods to eat all year round!

    In this episode we discuss how we love looking for mushrooms, eating some of the things we've found, and even using wild plants for medicinal purposes.



    NOTE: THIS EPISODE IS NOT DESIGNED TO BE ADVICE, MERELY AN INTERESTING CONVERSATION. DO NOT EAT OR USE PLANTS MEDICINALLY IF YOU CAN NOT IDENTIFY THEM PROPERLY.

    Eco Projects: Planning For The Year Ahead - The Back To The Good Life Podcast - Season 1 Episode 5

    We’re planning to do a few projects around our home this year, and they all have the planet in mind. We want to make sure we’re not adding too much carbon to the atmosphere, and that we’re not using up natural resources.

    Join us in episode 5 as we discuss a DIY potato planter, encouraging the bees into the garden, and a high-tech way to save money (and the planet) when it comes to our heating and energy usage!

    We’re giving a big shout-out this week to Niki’s old friend Simon from Brighton BeeNBee and we get really excited about appearing on the Gardening With Nikki Podcast!

    How Do we Reduce Our Waste This Winter? - The Back To The Good Life Podcast - Season 1 Episode 4

    Plastic is a waste that we produce on a daily basis. The landfills are filling up, and it's affecting the world's wildlife. The solution to this problem is not an easy one, but in this episode, we’ll be exploring how we are rescuing our waste as a household and what this is doing to reduce our carbon footprint.

    We speak to you about the brilliant services we use daily, services such as Oddbox, Milk and More, and Fill, and how creating a closed-loop system is a step in the right direction that everyone can do.
