Interesting podcast: "The Way of the Gardener"

[SeñorJacques]

A friend just sent me a link to a fairly recent (November 2021) podcast that I found interesting as a long time gardener and burgeoning Camino aficionado, and I thought it might be of interest to some of my fellow Camino Forum plant people as well:

Ep. 342 - The Way of the Gardener — In Defense of Plants

In Defense of Plants' Matt Candeias talks with gardener, author, and environmentalist Lyndon Penner about his new book, "The Way of the Gardener: Lost in the Weeds Along the Camino de Santiago."

From the description:

"Gardener, author, and environmentalist Lyndon Penner returns to the podcast to talk about his new book, "The Way of the Gardener: Lost in the Weeds Along the Camino de Santiago." This book details his 825 km (512 mi) journey across Spain and all of the wonderful plants he met along the way."

(I searched to see whether Penner's book and/or this podcast had been posted on this forum before and didn't find anything, so apologies if this is old news to anyone - mods, please feel free to delete if so.)

It is a truly delightful book. I learned so much about plants and enjoyed the story of his travels! I seem to recall ordering it directly from the author's website.

That podcast is in 2 sessions. Be sure to listen to both of them.
