Behind the Scenes: Scotland's Home (and garden) of the Year

Behind the Scenes: Scotland's Home (and garden) of the Year

Horticulturalist, Emily Hairstans, was the recent winner of Scotland's Home of the Year TV programme. Her garden featured heavily in the judges' praise for the 'Homegrown Hoose'. I met with Emily in her garden and with chickens clucking around us, we talked about her horticultural career and of course, some behind the scenes insights from being part of the programme.

So if you are a SHOTY fan, this is the episode for you! If you aren't, you may still enjoy the gardening, chicken and Edinburgh chat ...

Emily gardens at the Collective on Calton Hill and you can see the garden HERE
