  • Chris Rius
    Lots of information
    There are many garden podcasts that is mere a chatting session between two presenters without any facts given to the novice gardener. Farmer Fred has guests who are smart, educated, with a wide range of experiences on his podcast. Every so often, a little bantering between Farmer Fred and one of his regulars brings a chuckle to the listeners. Thanks for all the legitimate tips, all your wisdom and experience that make beginner gardeners more successful and confident. This is a fantastic show with good proven practices and experienced and specialized horticulturists and not a mere slot to advertise a new gardening book or gimmick!
