Hi! We are Christy and Edith, backyard gardeners from Colorado. Lately, we have noticed more and more people picking our brains for tips and trouble-shooting about gardening. We think it’s kinda funny, because we’re not experts. We just learned a lot about gardening from the mistakes we made along the way. You always hear about Victory gardens – but what about all the garden failures? Gardening is about learning, experimenting and rolling with the punches. Every week we share our most epic garden failures and our biggest garden lessons. Most gardens are the result of trial and error. To reduce your chance of failure, join us in our gardens. And learn why you should plant your tulips butt side down. Winner of Best New Podcast at 2020 Colorado Podcast Awards!

Hail Yeah - Edith is here! She is making tea from Linden trees, compost from coffee and mulch from grass. Christy gets her delivery of bindweed mites and surprises some beetles enjoying Afternoon Delight.
Edith and Christy share our heart break and hope after a devestating hail storm. Find out what was stripped, shredded, pounded, vaporized, smashed and went splat. What got knocked out of the pod? Will we ever grow successful zucchini again? Will we get a ripe tomato before Labor Day?
What should you do if your garden gets damaged from hail? We will give you practical tips. How can you protect your garden from hail? We’ve got some ideas.
And we have some fun with NEW pod plays to lighten the mood, the world’s shortest Mail Bag. Big Lessons of the Day: Give peas a chance. Store your basil by a counter appliance and don’t take it all so seriously. As the French say, “Je’men Foutisme”.
