Speaker:
Hi, I'm Topher Burns and I love gardening.
Speaker:
There's always something happening.
Speaker:
New leaves popping out at a plant or a bug crawling by that you didn't
Speaker:
know, lived in your neighborhood.
Speaker:
You're outside with the warm sun and the smell of the earth and growing things.
Speaker:
And you get to make new friends.
Speaker:
The birds that visit your feeders regularly, or your neighbors, you
Speaker:
never stopped to say hi to before.
Speaker:
And your relationships with the bushes and trees in your yard
Speaker:
last for years or even decades.
Speaker:
When I'm outside in my garden, I feel like I'm living on plant time.
Speaker:
The world slows down to do lists, fade away and the simplest details
Speaker:
like the brown paper texture of the underside of a Magnolia leaf
Speaker:
become endlessly fascinating.
Speaker:
I think everyone needs to spend more of their life on plant time.
Speaker:
Clippings is a podcast where we'll do that together.
Speaker:
It's a gardening show from a certified non-expert gardener me.
Speaker:
I'll share the simple tips.
Speaker:
I know we'll work on projects together.
Speaker:
I will screw up and we'll learn a lot along the way.
Speaker:
When things get tough, we're going to call my mom because she knows
Speaker:
way more about this stuff than.
Speaker:
And fair warning.
Speaker:
I might tell a story or two about my cats.
Speaker:
I'm so excited for you to join me.
