Teaching Kids About Plants
In this Shorts episode I'm talking about teaching kids about plants. It basically boils down to inviting them to the topic, following what they are interested in, encouraging autonomy while offering enough support that they are likely to succeed. I guess that could apply pretty widely. I also suggest several levels of starter projects. In the Q&A I answer Ryan's question about beginner raised beds. You can find the diagram I mention Here If you want to support this podcast, you can tell a friend to check it out, subscribe/rate/review on your favorite podcast platforms and/or join the Patreon.

Haskaps with Dr. Bob Bors
In this episode of Propaganda By the Seed, I'm talking with Dr. Bob Bors about Haskaps. Bob spent many years working with this species and selected and named some of the best varieties around. This species of edible Honeysuckle grows widely across the extreme north and is gaining popularity as a crop in many northern climates. We cover their origins, cultivation needs, culinary uses and several other topics. We also take a minor detour into the topic of bush cherries, which Bob also has a lot of experience with.
