  • Awe-Filled Gardens with Nancy Lawson - A Way to Garden with Margaret Roach - Oct. 5, 2026
    2 Oct 2026
    One late-August day, Nancy Lawson—or “The Humane Gardener,” as she is perhaps better known—was making a video about a spicebush swallowtail butterfly when something just beyond it in her Maryland yard caught her eye. A green heron was visiting a small pond Nancy had created not long ago—her first such encounter with the bird.

  • Tomatoes With Craig LeHoullier-A Way to Garden With Margaret Roach February 28, 2022
    26 Feb 2022

    Craig, who gardens in North Carolina, is a retired chemist with a longtime passion for tomatoes. He's the co-founder of the Dwarf Tomato Project, an advisor on tomatoes to Seed Savers Exchange, and the person who in 1990 named the popular heirloom Cherokee Purple from seed that had been passed down and eventually made its way to him.
