Climate change is real, plant friends—and it’s impacting our world too fast! Because of that, it’s becoming extremely important for us plant parents/gardeners to adapt our practices to ensure our gardens can withstand the challenges that lie ahead. In fact, it’s already impacting our gardens in SO many ways—from unpredictable weather to increased pest infestations.

So in this episode, I invited a new plant friend, Kim Stoddart, who is a passionate gardener, climate advocate, and author of “The Climate Change–Resilient Vegetable Garden,” to discuss strategies for building a climate-resilient garden.
