The Plant Based Podcast S17 E06 - The New Build Manifesto with Andrew Jackson

64 min • 23 mars 2025

Andrew Jackson is a man with a mission. After working in social housing for more than 10 years, he had a yearning to make outdoor spaces better for residents. Upon buying his own new build home, he realised how daunting it can be to suddenly have a blank canvas, full of promise, yet not have a clue what to do with it. 

Years later, after finding his feet with that new garden, Andrew has put together a rather fantastic New Build Manifesto, which makes some strong suggestions for how housing developers can better prepare residents for their new outdoor space. He believes his manifesto is in harmony with the housing developer world, whilst also having firm environmental benefits.

Hear all about it in this episode of the podcast. As ever, @ellenmarygardening and @mr_plantgeek gossip about anything that comes to mind but especially about Spring!

Effortlessly nourish and protect your plants with a collection of totally non-toxic, environmentally friendly, sustainable, pH neutral, lightweight and 100% natural products.

Derived from volcanic deposits, LAVA-LITE was formed by nature over 10,000 years ago.

The collection is made up of eight different horticultural growing/potting media and pest control products, with each continually offering the same natural benefits: thermal protection, moisture retention and control, soil conditioning and providing a nutrient boost; as well as being completely child, pet and environmentally safe.

LAVA-LITE is chemically inert, zero-harm and does not kill pests. It acts as a natural barrier and deterrent, providing an opportunity for them to simply move on.

All the products can be used anywhere in the home and garden without worry and any predators eating prey that have come in to contact with LAVA-LITE will not be harmed, keeping eco-systems balanced, maintained and sustainable.

The LAVA-LITE collection is available in handy 1 litre and 3 litre resealable pouches. They are easy to use, provide great results and don’t require careful handling, making them perfect for the novice gardener and specialist grower.
