Two Veg Gardeners Chatting All Things Growing (Adam Jones & Huw Richards)

Today's video I revisit Adam Jones and his incredible kitchen garden for an informal chat about all things gardening. Think the growing season, tips for new gardeners, plans for next year, winter in the garden, and a lot more. Make a cup of tea, and enjoy this little conversation we captured last August.

Sorry! I made English captions on my video editor for the last section but obviously they didn't generate!!! I will add them as soon as I get back from the garden! In the meantime I copy and pasted the translation below:

[@HuwRichards]

Huw - So what are you going to do over winter? Adam - Over the winter I am going to be planning a lot more, I am going to be thinking about where I am going to plant things in the garden. I didn’t plan much last year, I was busy and forgot the most important time Huw - and me, I thought let's put the potatoes here and the carrots over there Adam - Exactly the same thing! You know, it looks pretty, a bit of everything (it works!) but it works, so I think I’m going to be more organized, well I say I’m going to be more organized, but lets see, but I am going to try and be more organized. I want to look more into seed suppliers, to see what companies and nurseries grow similarly to me, get to know more gardeners, I haven’t been very good this year, Huw, with going to see people's gardens. It’s important to do - you know! Huw - It’s because you had to put in such an effort to keep everything watered! Adam - Well yeah that’s it (no time, sorry!) What about you? What are you thinking? Huw - Yeah... more planning I think, relaxing too, it has been a very busy year with work, and I am very happy with that, but yeah to have a bit of time for myself. Oh and edit this video! Adam - Oh yeah of course because this comes out in spring? Huw - Well sometime Adam - Relaxing you said - don’t think you can do that Huw - Well, yeah relaxing to me can be work haha. But I am looking forward because the energy in winter is very different, I really like the long dark nights. Adam - Yeah and me! Do you ever feel that people ask you as a gardener what your favourite time of year is? And I always say winter, and they’re like ‘what?!’. Because in the summer everything is happening, but I like for that reason, time to just take a breather. Huw - Yeah my summer holidays are in January! Adam - Exactly! January is a nice month to just cook and do stuff I always say that, and December is probably the only month of the year I do barely anything in the garden. Huw - Nope, I just walk away Adam - Yeah leave it alone really. But the winter will be busy but nice (it will - I am looking forward) and me!

[@sandrasouza5983]

What a chance a poor Brazilian woman have to understand the last half of the video ( that I was enjoying so much and paying a lot of attention) as it was switched to Welsh language 😆😆😆!!! Great collaboration and great garden, nevertheless!!! 😘

[@downthethirdlaneallotment]

I’m in England but as the crow flies I live only about 15 miles away from Wales yet could not understand a word when you switched to Welsh. Crazy.

[@kathyritscher9459]

Couldn’t understand the Welch but really enjoyed listening to it and getting the meaning of the conversation. Nice relaxed garden talk.

[@yukey2587]

Lol! Haven't a clue what you were saying, but it was lovely to hear the language. Charming!

Wow Huw, so proud you speak your home language, may it last forever ! Have been following for years, well done, loving your work and hope your next season is a bountiful one 👍

[@wendygrant2735]

This is the way of gardening I like the most, two top notch gardeners having a conversation, doing nothing, in the middle of a blooming garden.

[@Poledragon]

I absolutely loved this! I'm learning Welsh and it was wonderful to hear the language being used in such an enthusiastic way. Vastly different accents made it huge fun to try and follow along with.

[@gawain8000]

Who else watched until the end even though they had no idea what was going on? 😂😂😂

[@marking-time-gardens]

Absolutely! So relaxing and beautiful! Felt so natural and didn't want it to end... a little blessing

[@ctimms417]

As I sit here during a grey, wintery day in Canada, only dreaming of warmer days ahead (still too early to sow any seeds, even under lights), I soaked my soul by binge watching a bunch of Huw's Inspiring Garden series of videos. This one is my favourite, simply because of the easy conversation between the 2 of you. The Welsh at the end was a delightful bonus. I knew not a word you said but it was like music.

[@Muffy.from-Oz]

How delightful Huw, I thoroughly enjoyed that. Cheers Muffy from Oz (Australia)

[@HuwRichards]

Glad you enjoyed it:D

[@adamynyrardd]

Thank you Pamela 😀

[@thedodgestreetrings]

Watching this for a second time because hearing the Welsh just melts my heart. Thank you both for including that part.

[@paullittle5200]

Your right, time does fly in the garden, but afterwards there is such inner tranquility and satisfaction,my favourite pastime.

[@twpsy634]

That describes it perfectly .

[@alpinereid5265]

I can't add anymore to what's been already said. Absolutely loved this video, the garden, and the perfect ending in Welsh -- just hearing it (and not understanding a word), made me smile! My grandmother spoke Gaelic and I never understood her either! LOL but loved to hear it!

[@adamynyrardd]

I absolutely loved having a catch up in the garden Huw and a huge thanks to you for the opportunity to film and capture the garden last summer 😃 Only 8 weeks until spring and I can't wait! Thanks to everyone for their positive comments regarding our use of Welsh as well. In fact both Huw and I speak Welsh as our main language when we catch up and wanted to show this in the video 😊 Diolch o galon am ddod i'r ardd i ddala lan am sgwrs Huw 😃 ac am ddal y cyfan mor hyfryd ar fideo hefyd 😃

[@rodhatte]

It was nice to be revisiting your garden, Adam. Everything looked so lush! Can I ask you... You once said you use the chicken as composters... Do you remove the compost in autumn and start anew? or how else do you avoid vermin in winter? I would think that would be a lovely place for them to forage (as long as the velociraptors don't find them).

[@teedub1990]

I remember the first video with Adam fondly and I'm really stoked for a repeat with him. He's just so engaging and the two of you together was really fun to listen to.

[@storytimewithnannyuk8185]

Watching these two lovely fellas with the beautiful music in the background is so soothing for the soul. I could listen to them all day. Beautiful garden allotment, lovely genuine respect, friendship and comradeary 💖

[@maxbarker8161]

corrr the end of that was lovely to watch. The music came in, both of you chatting in a wonderful langue that I don't understand, sat in that lovely garden. What a great capture of human experience.

[@anniecochrane3359]

Well this was a real treat!!! The love of gardening and then the beauty of the Welsh language being spoken so easefully. All so very good for the soul.

[@adamynyrardd]

Diolch Annie, I'm really glad that you enjoyed our chat in both languages 🤩

[@1Lightdancer]

Lovely garden - and so enjoyed this visit with Adam and the lilt of your voices!

[@adamynyrardd]

Thank you very much Nadya, that's really kind of you 😀

[@gregallan7505]

Hi guys, what a great contribution to youtube. as an Australian, I didn't understand a word of your Welsh but for some reason it made me cry. It was so lovely. I'm from Tasmania, and I'm proud of where I'm from (there's lot's of unholy agriculture but 1/3 of this state is World Heritage) ... and I really appreciated seeing someone else (2 white guys, none then less) being proud of their heritage. We live in an age where it is important to have an understanding of what privilege having a white UK background gives, but also acknowledging that you too have a history and that we too come from somewhere that is rightly proud of it's achievements through countless generations, and that this is an equally valid contribution to our identity, without detracting from the consequences of colonialism. And it goes without saying, both your gardens are both amazing. Currently I live in the inner city of Melbourne, but my dream is to be able replicate what you both have. I hope that you both know that what you do and say here is important and inspires people like me to make a big change, both now in how I shop, and later in how I grow!!! (please understand my my comment not as a political stance, but I feel that I needed to clarify so that I didn't offend or appear indifferent, because I am neither of those things). and I just want to hear more Welsh - I think it's a beautiful language. It's only 3 generations ago that my family lived in the Scottish highlands and the Ilse of Skye, and I know nothing about them or their lives. My best friend, who recently passed, was a first generation immigrant from Northern Ireland. It's vlogs like this one that give people like me a little insight to our pre-Australian heritage. But most of all .. please keep sharing your garden, because that doesn't make me cry, it makes me smile, gives he hope and inspires me with a purpose.

[@patgentry7268]

Alan, what a thoughtful comment. I’m in California where summer and water issues are a constant challenge. But I watch and love the British garden shows because of the people. They are my people, and we share so much. When I visited Australia, I marveled every day at the European adaptation to that place and its possibilities. Loved Melbourne and Bright, where I stayed. All of us are lucky in our options ,and with the knowledge of our heritage are even more enriched. Best of luck with your future!

[@gregallan7505]

@@patgentry7268 Hi Pat. Thanks for your comment. Hang in there, water challenges are also a thing in Australia, so i feel you. I don't know what kind of garden you have ,but just do your best. ... that's all we can do. I have a funny feeling that your garden is more lush than mine. If I keep watching Huw I might end up with something slightly respectable one day. LOL Anyway I'm glad someone understood what I was trying to say without being controversial or political. Home and heritage are important for some of us, and thank you Huw for sharing that with us, it was special, it was kind and it was important.

[@meganpower3620]

Same! Made me cry - such a beautiful language. Would love Nick Park to make a Creature Comforts version of these two wonders.

What a wonderful chat to listen to while sorting my seeds this morning. Thank you both for this

[@adamynyrardd]

Thank you very much and that reminds me that I need to get a move on with sorting out my seeds to! I hope that you have a great growing season this year 🙂

Thank you 😀 that's some complement there Jenn! I love Gardeners World! We've had some snow here today as well, a lovely crisp winter's day!

[@kvintaquilts]

What a lovely talk, for some odd reason I especially enjoyed you both admitting to the trials the summer of 2022 has given (us all), and your resulting thoughts and renewed approaches. And I just really smiled and giggled through the last part, where I did not understand one single word! 😅 Let’s keep the small languages alive (Danish is my mother tongue) 26:46

Thank you very much for your kind comment all the way from Canada Pat! What an amazing place to live, although very challenging climate!

[@jeannamcgregor9967]

OMG, Huw, your best video ever! I'm completely charmed by Adam, untranslated Welsh and all. It's funny in part because here in California we have had years of severe drought and now suddenly we have REAL rain and may reach our annual norm in mid-January. We are as green as Wales right now. For the moment.

A podcast with Huw and Adam is a brilliant idea!

The Welsh allows 'only English speakers' to experience what it's like not to be able to speak English in a largely English speaking world. Loved the show. Learned stuff. He has a lovely garden - wish I had that much space to work with. But I'm doing fine with what I've got. Waiting for the rain to stop.....

[@megan8130]

Love this video! Thank you for including the Welsh segment. It's a beautiful language that I don't hear everyday. Huw, on your shade cloth topic...I have a short growing season and have been able to use shade cloth to slow my lettuce bolting. Thanks for the gardening banter...enjoyed this video immensely!

It’s really beautiful when Adam says that the garden is where he feel at ease. Not that he is control of the garden, but he is at ease. It’s so true, and a beautiful way of viewing both gardening and life in general 🌱 Thank you for a nice video both of you. I am now a follower of Adam, too 😊

Huw, I see a lot of comments about not understanding the last half of the video, but it was only 2 and a half minutes of Welsh. If one were to ask me, it wasn't enough! Nice to hear the language (I certainly don't have enough exposure), and a great video of two people sharing the real challenges that changes in climate are creating to what have been long time standards and ways of doing things. We all need to adapt to thrive.

Also the more I listen to Adam, the better I understand his broad accent! Thankyou Huw for another enlightening and entertaining video. Much appreciated.😍🍀

[@lightwavz]

What a lovely talk! My ancestors were Welsh so I think I inherited the understanding of the accents. Zero worries on my end there! I really enjoyed the topics, particularly in letting the garden do what it needs to do and not fighting it. I am in a zone 6 in America and we had a terrible heat wave in June and July. If it wasn't for shade cloths, most of my gardens (and a very pale me) wouldn't have made it through! We normally have a killing frost in mid October and it didn't come until early December. What an odd year all around!

[@adamynyrardd]

Thank you Terri 😄It's cool that you have Welsh ancestry! It seems shade cloths may be the way to go here in Wales as well!

Hi there from NZ. I found it really nice that you spoke in Welsh at the end of your video. Thank You!

I love how you guys talk about the weather, it’s hilarious! It’s 34 here in Victoria, Aus today, and we’re still annoyed we haven’t had the really hot weather yet. We all just become accustomed to what we’ve lived with, and garden accordingly. I love it!

[@adamynyrardd]

Haha absolutely, I hope reaching the dizzy highs of 34 won't become normal in Wales mind you, our native fauna and flora would be seriously impacted but completely understand how that temperature seems very les affair for an Australian - I don't know how you garden in such heat!!

Slugs - I'm in North Carolina, US, 7b and we have long hot humid summers (for about 3 months it is 90-100 Fahrenheit). The tomatoes can cook on the vine in late summer. Slugs have family reunions here. I start the season by washing out cat tins and fill them 3/4 full of cheap beer (called a beer trap) and lay them on the ground in the garden before I even plant in spring. I put them down every 10-15 feet. Early in spring, I get a lot of dead slugs, but I keep them filled all summer. At night the little lushes crawl in and drown - a happy death. It's like a frat boy party. I rarely have any slug damage, but I have to dump out the dead bodies and keep the tins filled 2-3 times a week. I'm sure the lady at Costco thinks I have a drinking problem as I buy cases that I keep out in the garden. Ironic as I don't even drink beer. I love your show and especially love this episode.

That was so awesome, what a way to start a new year. Thank you, Huw I enjoy your shows and I really enjoy Adam I did not realize he had his own show also. So, I liked it his garden is so beautiful. I have watched the 1st one several times on your channel. I live in the SW of Oregon USA, and we are going to have another atmospheric river for the next week again and the snow in the mts and wind omg they have been between 30 to 60 mph. I live in the beautiful Rogue River Valley, and we usually do not have this high of winds. Just thankful for the rain and snow so many forest fires the last few years. We lost 2300 homes it will be 3 years ago in September. So, I never complain about the rain I just sigh when it's 2 weeks in a row. Any way just wanted to let you know that I have been enjoying your shows for years now. Have a blessed week ahead.

[@jerbear7952]

Adam is as comfortable at conversing on camera as any I have seen. Huw is obviously wonderful but Adam steals the show. I'd watch a show of him interviewing people.

[@jerbear7952]

It also obviously takes two to have a conversation and Huw did a really good job of letting Adam run with the ball. Especially since you could tell at points he wanted to geek out and jump in. The Welsh was wo derful two. About as good of a video of two friends chatting as you can get.

[@henkkylltal]

Noswaith dda! I coincidentally stumbled upon Adam's channel last week while looking for video's about the Welsh language (and started learning Welsh straigt away: Dw i'n mwynhau gweithio yn yr ardd hefyd!). I'm happy to see that you two know each other and have so much fun talking about your passion. I'm definitely going to watch the previous video too. Good luck to you both.

"....F sharp." 🤣🤣🤣 I enjoyed this chat so thoroughly. This will be just my second year with a big garden (in the northeastern states), and honestly almost everything I've learned has been from you, Huw. I was drawn to your chanel because my beloved grandfather was from Wales and your filmography is deliciously gorgeous, and I stayed for the thorough education. I can't imagine not gardening, it is so deeply a part of who I've become and brings a feeling I can't describe. Thank you for sharing what you do!

[@willowgrove631]

I loved this video so much. It’s definitely one I will come back to often! Just looking at all that lush green growth and hearing you both talk about your love of growing (in both languages! 😊) has brightened up this grey, January day. Thanks!

[@Pachinko1]

Aussie vege garden tips to protect during the 38 to 42 degree summer: - build a structure that you can roll shade cloth over during the hottest time. - mulch mulch and more mulch - wetting agents - changing the time of sowing dependent on expected weather eg later winter each year means extended growing season and vice versa.

[@paulinas_thyme]

Thank you for saying it! It was my second or third year at the allotment and I was really fed up, even thinking about giving my plot away, as my crops were close to none. While on my first year I had an abundance of veggies on much smaller plot than the one I have now! It was so encouraging and motivating, and this year I have lost all my energy with it... I'm going to give it a go though this year again to see if it's better weather wise. Let's keep our hopes! ✨

No problem at all, keep at it and please don't be disheartened we always win and loose in the garden and ultimately are governed by the Weather and mother nature. Fingers crossed for a great growing season ☺

Adam is a comedian 😂😂

[@robinmiller1783]

What an excellent conversation!

[@adamynyrardd]

Thank you Robin 😀

[@WuesteGobi]

Hallo Adam, ich freue mich, dass Du wieder dabei bist. Dein Garten ist wieder phänomenal.

[@emmaninakarina]

my god I love Adam! Enjoyed the first video so much, and saw it for the first time just last week - such a nice surprise to see him here again!

[@gsxgrl]

I loved this conversation so much! I need to get in touch with my 2% Welch roots and learn the language! My mom's madien name is Jones and my name is Eve so maybe Adam and I are related! Ha! Thank you for sharing so much information, inspiration and humor! My 2024 garden plans will be a game changer!

[@YKKY]

I don't speak Welsh, I don't even understand it but oh boy, listening to it is so pleasurable, I love it! More more more please :)

[@HuwRichards]

Glad you enjoyed it :)

[@YKKY]

@@HuwRichards I love all of your videos, you helped me to get into gardening here in Slovakia, thank you!

[@adamynyrardd]

Thank you very much YK KY, ďakujeme!

[@ThatBritishHomestead]

Love this! It’s was very interesting

[@adamynyrardd]

Thank you 😀

[@KatesGarden]

This was great! A little different than your usual but I really enjoyed this conversation shared by two friends. I would enjoy watching more of these if that’s in the cards 👍

[@resourcefulgirl]

Your garden is splendid! Thank you both so much :)

[@HuwRichards]

Our pleasure! :)

[@katblyth8153]

That was fun and interesting, not least because where I live in Tasmania, the weather patterns so far this spring and summer seem to be echoing those of Wales. It’s been a constant battle to get anything going. So plenty of food for thought in your chats.

[@adamynyrardd]

Thank you Kat! I hope your weather settles down soon and that you can enjoy a great growing season!

[@emrsngs]

I LOVE shade cloth. I love in a high desert plain where temperatures can be extreme from one hour to the next. Shade cloth tempers that and my tomatoes grow like gangbusters under it. Definitely give it a go.

[@TransdermalCelebrate]

Introducing a bee colony, is a wonderful addition for any garden 😁👍

[@HuwRichards]

Absolutely !

[@adamynyrardd]

Absolutely, we've currently got 8 colonies here and they are so much fun and very interesting to observe with their pollination patterns throughout the year!

[@Vivienwestphal]

I was smiling the whole way through the video,☺️ especially the last bit! I didn't understand a word but it was the first time I've seen two blokes speaking Welsh to each other, so thank you for that experience 😃 also, the cinematography was beautiful! You made such beautiful shots of the garden! Thank you so much for this enjoyable video❤️❤️

[@HuwRichards]

Thank you Marlena! So glad we could be your first example of Welsh :)

[@adamynyrardd]

Thank you very much Marlena - I hope you get more opportunities to hear Welsh spoken in the future :) we are very proud of our native language, as is anyone! Huw has such a talent for capturing and thinking out great shots, when filming, pure genius!

[@TofferJ-UK]

What a joy to watch and listen to.

[@Iamhome365]

So looking forward to watching. I've looked at the last video I don't know how many times and absolutely love it!! Amazing garden

[@mikeob9502]

Wish I could give two thumbs up... Can easily believe that your prior interview with this gentleman was a record breaker. I probably won't bother with viewing the captions later on-I was completely enthralled with the interaction (sights and sounds) first time out. Thank you for this series, Huw.

[@juliewolvey6209]

OMG, you are both so adorable! Im in mid-Wales on the Shropshire border, currently battling river flood and rising ground water, but my kitchen garden will be revived soon! 'Ive subscribed to Adam's channel too!

[@annmariemcintyre6989]

A wonderful conversation ❤️

[@HuwRichards]

Thank you! :)
