105: New Garden Bed

In this episode, Hanna and Sarah revisit one of the very first topics ever covered on the podcast: preparing a new perennial garden bed. With a few more years of experience under their belts—working in their own yards and on public projects—they’re bringing back the original advice along with some new tricks, lessons learned, and a little extra nuance. The big takeaway? Use the cool days of early spring to get your beds ready before your spring plant purchases fill your driveway. Your future gardening self will thank you.For full show notes, including a list of all the plants we mentioned in this episode, visit: https://plantnebraska.org/podcastFor early access to new episodes, photos, and other behind the scenes content, join us on Patreon.
