What a joy the garden is at this time of the year, but please do ‘take care’… Tom’s got a timely reminder for us all…

The Dipper is one of our cleverest birds and we’ll find out all about their magical eyelids…

Ponds can make a huge difference to our garden spaces and to the environment… and Jack is back to tell us about his wildlife-friendly creation…

Plus, the team behind a walled garden restoration at Cresswell can take a much deserved bow… Steve Lowe has the latest on this wonderful heritage project…

And some top gardening tips and 'jobs for the week' from Tom Pattinson...

All coming up on the Nature Garden Podcast….
