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!

Meet Karen! A new guest host and voice behind the infamous Squirrel in our pod plays. Karen tells us all about her garden: full of beautiful tomatoes, rogue pumpkins, pokey peppers and zilch zucchini.
Cathy Nesbitt from Cathy’s Crawlers joins us to talk all about vermicomposting and how to get a worm composting system all set up. She answers all your questions: What kind of worms? How to feed your worms? What is the best location? When to harvest their amazing poo? What if you are afraid of worms? What does Bruno have to do about it and why can’t we talk about him?
Squirrels are everywhere this episode. We share an encore of Karen’s first pod play with us as The Squirrel, Christy shares how she is protecting her pumpkins from squirrels – or not. And a letter from the Mail Bag busts our idea on keeping thirsty squirrels from our garden. What are we gonna do?! Fortunately, "An Ode to Hornets" puts a different perspective on how to treat the critters in our garden.
