Most of the time, I\u2019ve had a bit of an introduction to our guest\u2019s story or at least done a deep dive into the internet to put together the pieces in advance. Today\u2019s guest, however, was one of those fascinating beings whose story isn\u2019t readily documented in the media meaning we\u2019re all hearing it for the first time together \u2013 literally, this was her first podcast EVER. Having discovered Sarah as a self-taught gardener and having followed her In My Patch page for over a year I\u2019ve experienced her passion for growing your own food and making it more accessible first-hand and originally planned this episode to be a bit of a practical first step for anyone like me keen to start growing some more veggies during lockdown. But as you know, I let the conversation go wherever it flows naturally and Sarah\u2019s way to yay bowled me over exemplifying everything about non-linear pathyays and dot points that don\u2019t make sense until decades later.\n\nSo there is a section covering some gardening myths and beginner hacks, but there\u2019s also a beautiful story touching on grief and tragedy, striking serendipity and two decades of piecing together her yay. I genuinely had no idea what was coming next in the story at each point and can\u2019t believe how much has come before her hugely successful chapter with In My Patch that now has nearly 100,000 followers and students growing blossoming gardens all around the world. I hope you enjoy getting to know Sarah and her pug Pig as much as I did!\n\nFIND OUT MORE ABOUT THE IN MY PATCH COURSES AND GARDEN MORONS CLUB\n\n+ Follow In My Patch here\n+ Announcements on Insta at @spoonful_of_sarah\n+ Join our Facebook community here\n+ Subscribe to not miss out on the next instalment of YAY!
