Good tips

Reviewed in the United States on June 4, 2021

I enjoy the show and the gardening tips for sure. I gave it four stars rather than five because there’s really a lot of agenda-based propaganda sprinkled in🙄🤦🏻‍♀️. I guess that’s true of most shows. But overall the hosts are great and it’s put together very well.

VERY Disappointed.

Reviewed in the United States on May 10, 2020

Forget about those "tips" they promised. This is gardening at it's most basic, except for the expensive raised beds they use to grow all their vegetables. Watching someone plant plants that are already several inches high is no help. The really important information, like using grow covers, what kind of fertilizer to use, how to protect them from insects, what the soil ph should be, how much water and sun it will need, IS NOT INCLUDED. What you get is some people who are really long winded digging holes and planting seeds or well established, already hardened off plants. They mention a few varieties, but no reasons as to why they selected that variety. Anyone who would find these videos informative has probably never had a garden before. I'm so disappointed. Had really high hopes for this series due to the description, but fails to deliver.

Delightful, but the hosts could dig deeper

Reviewed in the United States on May 14, 2020

PROS: I love the seed to harvest to dinner plate concept, the community involvement segments, the variety of recipes, the raised bed method and container pot method, videography, use of experts (i.e. the orchardist),
CONS: Content needs more scientific info like ph of soil, why they chose the variety of vegetable they did, which pests are most common and how to rid of them, how often & what method they water the vegetable, etc.
Perhaps a little less “I know more than you” banter between the hosts would allow time for more education. Maybe delete the hosts eating the chef’s creations. I get it, it tastes delicious, of course it does, move on. Let’s pack the content with more Take Aways.

Good content, annoying dynamics sometimes.

Reviewed in the United States on February 16, 2020

Interesting and mostly fun. Makes gardening very accessible. 5 for content but 3 for the dynamic between the presenters, which was at times quite irksome, and so patriarchal. HE, a wise, knowledgeable gardener, and SHE the eager pupil, getting scolded for her naïveté and enthusiasm, etc. Sometimes challenging him, but still, seemed like 1950s “father knows best” interaction sometimes.

Peaceful and infomative

Reviewed in the United States on November 7, 2019

I have been watching these as I am waking up and getting ready for work. The guy is very calm and infomative, he really makes the show. The woman is pretty horrible and doesn't know anything/rude. I am really enjoying how I am learning while having a peaceful voice explain simple gardening. Even if you have your plants already figured out, this would still be a good show to put on and relax to. I plan on watching this show a few times.....

Love the series

Reviewed in the United States on April 3, 2021

I was worried they might be mimicking Gardeners' World with Monty Don (which we love) but it doesn't; this show stands on its own. Watched all 3 series available on Amazon. The hosts balance out each other so well (one is playful and charismatic while the other is a bit more serious and dry). Nice concept of seeing the difference in growing in garden pots vs raised beds. Useful gardening tips for beginning gardeners. And cute recipes in the end of each episode. Enjoyable show.

Informative, Simple, and Even Has Cooking Tips/Techniques! I Have Two Issues With It, Though...

Reviewed in the United States on April 7, 2020

Very informative, while staying pretty simple. Love this for the quick lessons on how/when to grow certain vegetables/fruits. There are, however, two issues I have with the show. The titles are not just misleading in many cases - some are downright incorrect; i.e. they don't even discuss/show the vegetable/fruit in the title!! Very amateurish there. The other issue I have is the lady is really annoying. The guy is informative and a bit dry. She is there to spice it up, but she comes across as annoying and she interrupts quite a bit. She's just....annoying. I get it, it's partially her accent, but her behavior is simply off-putting in a number of ways. Go ahead, call me a misogynist. Just my opinion, and I see a fair % of other reviews echo mine...or perhaps mine echo theirs.
