Alice Vincent is joined by two women from the book, herbologist and chef Maya Thomas, Anne McIntyre, and Sui Searle to discuss the reasons why women go to ground.
The book was borne of a determination to tell the stories that have too frequently been buried in the earth for centuries. Over the course of two, largely locked-down years, Alice visited the gardens and growing spaces of 45 women from all walks of life. Why Women Grow is a collection of these conversations, along with Alice’s own personal journey as she contemplates a new phase of life.
