🪚 Let's talk garden power tools!

Welcome to Tales From The Potting Bench, a planty podcast where you’ll hear all manner of stories from knowledgeable, passionate and invaluable people who love plants as much as you and I.

We’re here at the monumental 7th season of the podcast and thanks to you, the listeners, we’re back with even more guests and this season promises to be even bigger, even better and with even more planty goodness! This season I'm focussing on those people who really know what they're talking about in a series of episodes I'm calling 'Experts In Their Field'.

Along with a brand-new season, is a brand-new sponsor, and I’m thrilled to share that I’m joined for season 7 by the powerhouse of the plant world, Westland Horticulture. Westland are dedicated to empowering everyone with the skills, knowledge, and tools to help every gardener give it their best, season after season. Great gardening starts with great compost, and Westland has a trusted range of composts for your every gardening need, from giving your baskets and containers the best start in life filling your vegetable patch with nutrients ahead of a bountiful season.

When we garden, we use our hands, our minds and our bodies to work on the land and with the nature around us. Using tools and equipment to help us to do that quicker and easier is a vital part of enjoying more time to be in the garden. When it comes to power tools, there is one company that always comes to mind and that is German born, STIHL.

STIHL have been pioneers in power tools for over 90 years year now, working with both professionals and the amateur or home gardener, creating innovative battery and corded tools that just get the job done. In this episode I talk to STIHL GB’s E-commerce and Content Manager, Carmen Rosten. Carmen tells us all about the history of STIHL, just why they do what they do and she even lets slip what her favourite tool ever is….enjoy!

If you’d like to see more from STIHL then you can find them on Instagram at @stihlgb and do make sure to have a look at their YouTube Channel for all sorts of tool videos and also those Timbersports videos too! You’ll find them on YouTube also as STIHL GB

If you’re out in the garden this week and you’re looking for the perfect autumnal job then why not pot up some bulbs to give you colour all spring long? Fill your pots with Westland’s Bulb Planting & Potting Mix, which is a specially blended peat free compost. It has added zinc complex that naturally supports plant health for an abundance of stronger, healthier bulbs and vibrant flowers. It also contains grit to ensure there is free drainage with the perfect balance of nutrients, so you’ll have stunning vibrant displays come spring next year..
