Urban Herbs with Andy Perry

Text Agony Aunt Roz with your Cutflower Questions.

In this weeks podcast Roz is joined in the studio by Andy Perry from Urban Herbs.

For those of you who haven't met Urban Herbs before, essentially, they are a stockist of unusual culinary herbs. Last year, they stocked around 90 different kinds of culinary herb plants, and sold them as plants. But they are also selling them as specifically a food product. So for example, Vietnamese, coriander, lime, mint, strawberry, mint, blackcurrant, sage, unusual living flavours. 

Roz and Andy are discussing:
My route into this weird and wonderful world of growing herbs.
Working with nature is not a job, it’s a lifestyle.
When will the book be released?
The importance of getting everyone involved in growing and sharing.
What’s the greatest issue with small businesses in the UK?
What’s the biggest barrier to starting a flower farming business?
Why not embrace seasonality?
What’s on your tombstone?
Where can people find you?
