At long last, after more than a year of recording, interviews, and documenting the great work being done by local gardeners in the Pittsburgh area, we are thrilled to announce the launch of our new podcast: Gardener’s Report.

Visit GardenersReport.com to listen to the first episode where we explore the Positive Effect Community Garden in Beltzhoover with Miss Natalie and her friends. As host, Anthony visits the garden on Miss Natalie’s birthday to participate in a cleanup day where volunteers weeded the garden and planted new seedlings.

New episodes will be released biweekly to inform residents on how to start a community garden, methods for gardening, soil testing, composting, and more. By connecting with real gardeners, this podcast captures the various challenges faced in the field and how local soil scientists solve specific problems.

After more than a decade of gardening on vacant lots in Pittsburgh, our team has experimented with fun and unique practices in sustainable agriculture. To make these activities more accessible, our podcast walks listeners through basic steps in the gardening process and digs into more complex practices.

Let us know what you think and be sure to connect with us to join the podcast and tell listeners about your work. We welcome new gardeners, experienced growers, and dirt nerds alike. We can’t wait to hear from you!
