Description
Annie Winter, gardener, and Cass share laughs, tangents, and heartfelt reflections in this Christmas Special recorded in The Winter Garden.

- How their friendship began (it started with a "no")
- Behind the scenes of starting a podcast and dealing with imposter syndrome
- Gardens where they felt the 'whoosh' this year
- Reflections on this season's incredible guest stories
- Listener stories that made them cry
- One lucky listener winning a $50 voucher from Kuranga Native Nursery
Stay until the end for a hilarious outtake!
