Episode India Knight on making home in a garden
There’s a school of thought that believes the garden to be an extra room of the house - albeit, outside. If that’s the case, then India Knight is a masterful host. The author and columnist, who has written 13 books, is a homemaker with an unabashedly joyful approach to how we make our lives beautiful.
In the days when the quinces are beginning to ripen, sitting in the doorway between her green and pink house and abundant garden, India tells us about how coming to gardening as a total beginner transformed how she lives.
You can read more warm and witty insight into homemaking in India’s latest book, HOME, as well as on her substack as India Knight.
This podcast is inspired by my book, Why Women Grow: Stories of Soil, Sisterhood and Survival, which is available in all good bookshops. We’ve also been photographing our guests and their gardens and you can see the beautiful images captured by India Hobson on my website and instagram account @alicevincentwrites.
