Summary
As gardeners, if we get stuck in our ways, we can't grow. I love the fact that there is always more to learn when it comes to gardening and that we can push ourselves to be better stewards of our land. To discuss many of the lessons she learned this past year, my friend and guest this week is Margaret Roach, gardening columnist for The New York Times and the founder of A Way to Garden.

| 0:33.6 | love Margaret too. |
| 0:35.3 | Recently she had me on her podcast a way to garden for a return visit to reflect back |
| 0:40.7 | on 2021, the good, the bad, and the ugly, basically those aha moments. |

| 1:08.4 | So it's only fair that this time I'm asking her what new gardening lessons she learned |
