With the summer holidays here Gardeners’ Corner gets some inspiration on what to do with the kids in the garden from Amy Kelly. Presenter David Maxwell visits Shaun Boyd’s wildlife garden at Brockagh woods near Ballymoney and is tickling the solution to tackling some of the worst weeds? Ann FitzSimons is deploying a special weeding tool to keep one of her borders weed free after years of trying to combat Ground Elder. Also on the programme, the College of Agriculture, Food and Rural Enterprise is celebrating 25 years of some of its courses and its walled garden. Head of horticulture David Dowd and graduates spanning that 25 years join David in studio along with Gardeners’ Corner regular Anna Hudson who answers questions from listeners.
