In this episode, I chat with Michalina Hunter, founder of Cicada Seeds, about edible perennial crops.

We explore:

  • Ways to use perennial vegetables in a home-garden setting
  • Why perennial vegetables are a game-changer for sustainable gardening 
  • Top crops for home gardeners
  • Michalina’s top recommendations for home gardeners
  • And we also take a tangent to discuss an interesting tomato that Michalina introduced, the ‘Venus of Willendorf’ tomato

Whether you’re curious about food forests, edible perennials, or just want to try something new, tune in for practical advice from a seasoned grower.
