Customer Reviews
Fabulous podcast for gardeners of all levels.
Great info and engaging discussions. I also love that the information is accessible for newbies but also has great bits of information for pros. Finally - while I know it is a podcast by valley nursery, they don’t push their products over much - just let you know what they have that fits the theme of a particular podcast. Great work, you guys!
Great little podcast!
As a local person, I really enjoy this podcast! I woke up one day and suddenly owned 3 acres around my new house and had no idea how to garden at all. Learned so much from you guys. Love your relaxed style and you both have great chemistry as co-moderators.
Knowledgeable but insincere
This podcast was exactly what we needed to learn more about the plants that work in our region- and to learn about the area. Update: Valley Nursery just shared their super disappointing position on human rights in a letter to the city counsel: “Why would I want to alienate 50% of my customer base? You think flying rainbow flags is not about politics? EVERYTHING is about politics today. What's next? BLM flags? Tribal flags?”
