As we are now firmly in Spring, let us have a look at podcasts about embracing the great outdoors.
Gardening with the RHS has an April checklist with all the things that you need to do now to make your garden look at its best for the rest of the year. BBC Gardeners’ World meanwhile has special guests Monty Don, Nick Bailey and Frances Tophill on hand in their latest episode with their tips and recommendations. And if you don’t have a garden, expert Alan Titchmarsh is on hand to give advice on how best to look after plants in your own home.
As the Season Turns is a timely podcast that focuses on the changing seasons, with a new episode at the start of every month. In their latest episode, they join author Lia Leendertz on a trip to a blossoming orchard before visiting some oak trees with their resident forager Zoe Gilbert.
And if you can’t get outside yourself, Radio Lento features high quality records of nature from all over the UK, from coastal reserves to early morning in the Derbyshire hills. All of the recordings are uninterrupted and are usually over an hour long, making it the perfect accompaniment to work or to help you drift off to sleep.
