Episode 2
Brian and Lizzie launch a competition between Beechgrove presenters to see who can create the most successful vegetable plot of the season.
Lizzie plans and plants the veg border that she will have judged at the end of the series. She also revisits the potager garden that she planted last year. A potager garden is one that is both attractive and productive, and Lizzie reviews what worked last year and what needs to be done to the area this season.
Brian explains how to start and make your own compost, a great way to garden sustainably while also keeping costs down. Another way to help the ecosystem in your garden is to use fallen branches and cuttings to build a deadwood hedge. These hedges create a great habitat for many kinds of wildlife in your garden, from pollinators to hedgehogs, and Brian and Lizzie demonstrate how to make one on your own plot. The pair also start one of the year's big Beechgrove projects: a sitooterie. A sitooterie is somewhere to sit outside, and for many gardeners, creating a great area to enjoy a summer's evening is exactly what they want from their plot.
