The HortWeek Podcast has been industry leader since its launch in 2020.

There have been 182 episodes to date and a blockbuster peat documentary is coming soon.

With 60 podcasts already this year, HortWeek is the most popular podcast in horticulture.

The Horticulture Week Podcast was born in the depths of the first Covid-19 lockdown in a bid to harness the burgeoning audio format to communicate with horticulturists at a time when garden centres were closed. The public was embracing gardening, using green space and appreciating nature as never before.

The leading horticulture industry podcast has (at the time of publishing) produced 182 podcasts with an unrivalled selection of well-known industry leaders but also lesser known, but equally fascinating figures from across the sector, expertly interviewed by HortWeek's Rachael Forsyth and Matthew Appleby.

Highlights include conversations with Peter Seabrook, Peter Moore, Tony Juniper, Alan Titchmarsh, Adrian Bloom, Tim O'Hare, Chris Collins, Peter Donegan, Kate Sheldon, Bunny Guinness, Joe Richomme, Alan Down, Richard McKenna, Boyd Douglas-Davies and James Barnes. We've also had a partnership with the Colegrave Seabrook Foundation.

See here for the latest episode which digs deep into the transition to peat-free, giving two contrasting views, with two Chelsea Flower Show growers.
