Season 4 Episode 2: Endings & beginnings

In this episode of Stuart and Alexander, Rebecca and Grace discuss the changing seasons, from an unusually autumnal August to garden management during peak wedding season. Rebecca shares the recent heartbreaking loss of her beloved dog, Mabel, and thanks the community for their support. We exchange tips on organising the garden with flags and labels, and Grace teases a new project involving engraved garden labels.
