In this episode, we look at week 2 of the project where I start many tasks in the garden and left them unfinished. Sound familiar? Let's discuss sun mapping, invasive plants and some solutions to this universal problem of not completing things.

Creating a podcast (and gardening) is hard work, so a small contribution towards it is always appreciated - I'll use it to buy some seeds and feed the kids!

In this first episode, we look at week 1 of the project where I attempted to remove an ugly bush from our garden. Sounds simple? Not quite! We talk about setting realistic expectations, defeating stubborn roots (physical and emotional), and what happens when your nine-year-old becomes your supervisor.

The Man Who Grew is a reflective, honest, and often humorous podcast about personal growth through the lens of gardening, permaculture, parenting and everyday life. Hosted by Lee, a father of 4 who moved to Finland and aspires to disconnect from the online world and re-connect with nature by turning his piece of land into a beautiful homestead - the show documents one man’s journey of growth—both on the land and in the mind.

Each episode explores the challenges of making change, staying motivated, dealing with distraction, and confronting unfinished work. Along the way, there are real stories from the garden, diary entries, tips, failures, success stories and too many puns. If you've ever had thoughts about swapping screens for something real, or you just want to grow as a person, this thought-provoking podcast should certainly plant a few seeds.
