What if one small idea — dreamt up in a London traffic jam — could grow into a business that’s brought joy to people for over 30 years? In this gentle, charming and inspiring episode, Holly sits down with Ned Trier, founder of The Gluttonous Gardener & Growbar, to hear how a simple love of growing and giving, blossomed into something truly lasting.
Ned shares the story behind his slow, thoughtful journey — from the early gardening days to sending grapevines and Growbars across the country — and why staying small, honest and hands-on has been the secret all along. Expect reflections on creativity, sustainability and finding delight in the peculiar.
So whether you’re dreaming up your own venture, in need of a little perspective or just love stories with soil under their nails, this conversation is a true reminder that good things really do take time to grow. It might even leave you inspired enough to plant something beautiful in your own life.
