Sam missed an episode! Why?
Taking time to pause, reflect, and reset is just as important in life as it is in the garden 🌱
In this personal episode of White Strawberries, I’m sharing a behind-the-scenes look at the podcast after nearly a year of consistent episodes. From humble beginnings (yes… five downloads and my mum falling asleep 😅) to growing a global audience, this episode dives into what’s working, what’s been surprisingly hard, and what’s coming next.
With the lead-up to Matariki, I’m stepping into a seasonal reset — reflecting on the past six months and intentionally designing the next phase of this podcast, my courses, and how I support you.
If you’ve ever wondered what it really takes to build something from scratch — or you’re on your own journey of growth — this one’s for you.
🌱 What You’ll Discover
What I’ve learned after 45 podcast episodes Real podcast growth stats The hidden complexity of email lists, websites, and automation Why I’m taking a month off and what I’m resetting The vision behind my Grounded gardening course I've reduced my grocery bill while eating high-quality food Why growing your own food is becoming more important than ever How you can shape future episodes through Q&A and voice messages🔗 References & Resources Mentioned

🌱 Before you plant another single tree, there’s one step that can save you years of frustration: observation.
In this Mastering the Garden episode of White Strawberries, I walk you through how to understand your land before you grow — from mapping shade and wind to testing soil, water movement, and frost patterns.
Using real examples (including why my mum’s feijoas fruit weeks before mine just 12 minutes away), we explore how small environmental differences shape what thrives — and what struggles.
This episode is your practical guide to working with your land instead of against it, using simple, often free tests to build a resilient, abundant garden.
🌿 If you’ve ever felt like you don’t have a “green thumb,” this might be the missing piece.
🌱 What You’ll Discover
How to map shade across seasons and use it to your advantage What wind patterns reveal about plant placement and disease risk How frost moves through your land — and how to work with it Simple ways to observe water flow, drainage, and waterlogging Easy at-home soil tests (including structure and moisture checks) How weeds can give clues about your soil conditions Why climate zones (like USDA) are helpful — but limited🔗 References & Resources Mentioned

Should we be using pesticides on our fruit trees? And if not… what do we do instead?
In this episode of White Strawberries, I’m joined by Matthew Priestley, whose work and thinking around ecological systems challenges and encourages us to rethink how we respond to pests in our orchards🌿
We explore what’s really going on when pests and disease show up, and why reaching for sprays might be missing the bigger picture. From airflow (including opening up a “wind tunnel”) to soil health, tree nutrition, and system design, this conversation is all about working with your ecosystem instead of against it.
If you’re growing fruit trees and wondering how to manage pests without pesticides, this episode offers a practical, grounded alternative rooted in science, observation, resilience, and long-term thinking.
What You’ll Discover
Should you use pesticides on fruit trees—or avoid them altogether? What pests and disease are actually telling you How airflow and pruning reduce pressure naturally for some fruit trees Why soil health and tree nutrition are foundational How systems evolve as your trees grow and mature What to do instead of spraying (organic and non organic pesticides)Find Matthew on the BrotherWood site here and on Socials here.

Discover how to design a garden that produces fruit all year long using the power of guilds. In this episode of White Strawberries, I dive into the concept of plant guilds—groups of plants, animals, and insects that support one another—and how they can transform your orchard or food forest into a thriving, self-sustaining ecosystem.
Learn why harvest gaps happen, even in productive gardens, and how understanding guild relationships ensures consistent yields, healthier plants, and richer soil. From observing microclimates to layering fruit trees with companion plants, this episode is packed with practical strategies for gardeners who want abundance without the stress.
What You’ll Discover / Key Points:
Why gardens often have unintentional harvest gaps and how guilds solve this problem The role of companion planting and supportive guild members in fruit production Practical steps for designing a guild-based orchard or food forest How observation and seasonal rhythms guide planting decisions Ways to enhance soil fertility, plant health, and biodiversity through guildsReferences & Links:

I'm uploading this episode for a second time because it is mushroomy gold!!
In this earthy and enthusiastic episode, I chat with Sarah Williams—permaculture gardener, mushroom grower, and the green-fingered soul behind Sarah’s Green Acres—about growing wine cap mushrooms, also known as burgundy mushrooms or garden giants.We explore:
How to grow them in a food forest or permaculture orchardWhy yours might not be fruiting yet (ahem, speaking from experience!)Cooking, freezing, and eating them—especially if you're cutting back on meatWhy they’re hard to find in shops, and why that's exactly why we should grow themTheir role in nutrient cycling, soil health, and lazy gardening magicPlus, we spiral delightfully into tangents about refractometers, bitter greens, the spray-heavy brassica world, and why we sometimes avoid testing our soil (just in case it bursts our bubble).
If you’ve ever wanted to grow something that tastes amazing, supports your soil, and you can’t find at the supermarket—this episode is for you.

Sprouting and soaking might be some of the simplest — and most forgotten — kitchen skills we have 🌱
In this conversation, I sit down with my dear friend Maria to chew the fat (and the nut!) on soaking grains, sprouting seeds, activating nuts, and why our ancestors prepared food this way for thousands of years.
We explore antinutrients, phytic acid, lectins, and why traditional preparation methods can improve digestibility and nutrient bioavailability. From broccoli sprouts and sulforaphane to soaking pulses with salt and grains with a splash of acid, this episode blends practical kitchen rhythms with grounded nutritional science.
We also talk omega-3s, chia gels, linseed eggs, and the difference between sprouts and microgreens — because they are not the same.
This episode covers: sprouting seeds, soaking beans, activating nuts, reducing antinutrients, broccoli sprouts, omega-3 balance, and traditional food preparation.
During this episode we're looking at my (Sam's) new Sprouting Kit from Kings Seeds. You can check that out, along with their range of organic sprouting seeds, here:

💚The waitlist is open: Find Information on the Grounded Course here
A friend once asked me how I could justify spending 10 hours a week in the garden.
That question stuck with me.
In this episode of White Strawberries, I explore the research behind the Blue Zones — the regions identified by Dan Buettner where people live the longest, healthiest lives — and filter those findings through the lens of gardening.
This isn’t a double-blind clinical trial. But it is a fascinating look at lifestyle patterns that consistently show up in long-lived communities: natural movement, plant-based eating, nervous system regulation, strong social ties, and purpose.
And when you look closely… gardening sits right in the middle of it all.
🌱 What You’ll Discover
What the original Blue Zones are and why they matterWhy “move naturally” may be more powerful than gym workoutsHow gardening supports longevity through functional movementThe role of beans, sourdough, fermented foods, and modest animal proteinWhy daily stress reduction rituals matter for brain healthHow purpose (ikigai) and family connection impact lifespanWhether wine at five is really about wine — or community📚 Referenced

This summer has been brutal for gardeners — relentless rain, flooding, fallen trees, fungal disease, and damaging winds arriving right in the middle of the growing season.
I want to share with you five practical techniques that genuinely saved my garden during extreme summer weather. These aren’t idealised systems or expensive upgrades — they’re real-world responses to waterlogged soil, wind stress, and disease pressure in a changing climate.
This is about observing your space honestly, responding early, and growing with the climate you have — not the one you planned for.
🌱 What You’ll Discover
The five simple changes that helped my garden survive summer stormsWhy dead mulch and living ground cover work better togetherHow swales protect roots by controlling water movementThe correct way to stake trees so wind strengthens instead of kills themHow fungal disease, wind, and waterlogging are connectedWhy plant diversity is your best insurance policy🛠️ The Five Garden-Saving Techniques

Annual raised beds often feel productive at first… and then stop thriving. We talk about the hidden workload of annuals, why potting mixes run out of nutrients, add toxicity to our soil and how lack of biodiversity can lead to pests and frustration.
This isn’t an anti–raised bed rant. There are things they do well. But if you’ve ever felt like you’re doing “everything right” and your garden still isn’t feeding you — this episode will help you understand why, and what small shifts actually make gardening easier.
🌱 In this episode, we explore:
Annuals vs perennials (and why annuals are more work)Why raised beds look great… then strugglePotting mixes, wetting agents, and soil lifeBiodiversity, predators, and pest pressureSimple ways to build healthier, lower-stress garden bedsIf you’d like a visual of how I build a sandwich bed, DM me “Sandwich Bed” on Instagram or Facebook and I’ll send it through.

There’s no shortage of gardening advice online — but more information isn’t making us better gardeners. In fact, it’s often doing the opposite.
In this Mastering the Garden episode of White Strawberries, Sam explores why overwhelm, comparison, and perfectly curated (often fake AI rubbish) can quietly drain our confidence and joy. If you’ve ever felt like you’re “doing it wrong” despite knowing so much, this episode is for you.
This is a conversation about community over content — and why real transformation on our land doesn’t come from another tip, trick, or algorithm-fed reel. It comes from proximity. From being around people who observe carefully, ask better questions, and live intentionally with their land — not perfectly, but honestly.
Drawing on permaculture thinking, lived experience, and the idea of “spirals” of achievement versus apathy, Sam unpacks how peer groups quietly shape our standards, energy, and outcomes in the garden (and beyond). She also shares practical ways to find — or create — the kind of gardening community that actually supports growth, alignment, and joy.
This episode also gently introduces Grounded, an upcoming course designed to bring real people together in real time — not for more information, but for shared momentum and discernment.
🌱 If you’re ready to step off the information treadmill and into something more grounded, this one’s for you.
🌱 What You’ll Discover

Supermarkets love annual crops — but only a very narrow version of them.
In this Sparking Joy episode of White Strawberries, I explore annual vegetables and fruits you’ll almost never see on supermarket shelves — not because they’re inferior!!
We talk about why supermarket produce is bred for transport, uniformity, and shelf life — and what gets lost along the way: flavour, phytonutrients, biodiversity, and joy. From purple tomatoes and unusual potatoes to heirloom beans, peas, and self-seeding “weeds,” this episode celebrates annual plants that thrive in real gardens, not industrial systems.

Next summer, I’m choosing a quieter, more generous way of gardening — more perennials, less hustle.
In this Sparking Joy episode of White Strawberries, I reflect on why perennial plants suit real life so much better than annual-heavy gardens, especially when you’re a parent, a busy human, or simply someone who wants joy without burnout.
We explore what makes a plant perennial, why supermarkets shape such a narrow food system, and how home gardeners have the freedom to grow softer, stranger, more seasonal, and more nutritious plants. From globe artichokes and asparagus to berries, figs, kawakawa, and heritage fruit, this episode celebrates the plants that keep giving — even when we step away.
I also share how I’m planning my own perennial spaces using soil clues, microclimates, wind, drainage, and community wisdom, plus a community-sourced list of favourite edible perennials that rarely appear in supermarkets — and why that’s exactly the point.
🌱 Gardening for wellness, curiosity, and joy — not perfection.
🌿 What You’ll Discover
Why perennials thrive when life gets busyThe hidden ways supermarkets shape what we eatWhy flavour, diversity, and resilience matter more than shelf lifeHow to plan perennial placement using soil, wind, shade, and drainageWhy heirloom and heritage plants outperform supermarket varietiesFavourite edible perennials shared by the communityHow perennials can support and protect annual garden beds🔗 References & Resources Mentioned

Guest: Alison White, Co-convenor of the Safe Food Campaign
In this episode, I sit down with Alison White, the woman behind New Zealand’s version of the Dirty Dozen list — a ranking of the most pesticide-contaminated foods available on our shelves. Alison has a Master’s in Public Health, is a lifetime member of the Soil & Health Association, and co-convenes the Safe Food Campaign.
Together, we unpack:
How the Dirty Dozen is created and what makes NZ’s version uniqueWhy grapes, celery, and strawberries consistently top the listThe worrying truth about glyphosate (RoundUp) and how little NZ actually tests for itHow pesticide regulation gets tangled in industry influencePractical ways to reduce your exposure — from vinegar rinses to growing your own produceThis conversation will leave you thinking differently about what’s on your plate — and why home-grown food might just be one of the most powerful forms of resistance.
