The Wiggly Podcast is our weekly dose of Wiggly Life, it’s like The Archers, but real!
Fantastic, if there is one Podcast you have to listen to, it's this. Totally addictive. The Wiggly Podcast is very informative but also hilariously funny.

Wiggly Podcast 0188Tracy Worcester's 'Pig Business'
Length: 56 mins 22 secs | First netcast on Jun 29 2009 - Rachel Harries talks to film maker Tracy Worcester about her film Pig Business, a film that shows how cheap meat is not always what it seems and how industrial food production methods have uncoupled the price of pork on the supermarket shelves from the costs that we'll all have to pay eventually. It's the longest Wiggly Podcast so far, but an important one that bears a second listening.

Wiggly Podcast 0187Cometh the hour... (Part 1)
Length: 33 mins 06 secs | First netcast on Jun 22 2009 - It's the first half of a two part show featuring Richard's chats with the guests who dropped in on the Wiggly Garden at the Hay Festival, but there's no sign of any of the Team to introduce the show, so Michael emerges from behind the mixing desk to do the honours. In this half of the show Richard and Heather watch Hannah as she sets up a new honey bee hive; Richard talks to the editorial team of Gardens Illustrated magazine about garden design; there's a tale of woe from Mariella Frostrup regarding her lovely Eva Solo bird feeder, and Rachel Harries gets a private view of an authentic gypsy caravan from wheelwright Hugh Peachy. Continued next week...

Wiggly Podcast 0186It's Hooching with Worms
Length: 41 mins 13 secs | First netcast on Jun 15 2009 - The Queen Wiggle is joined on the Wiggly Sofa by only Farmer Phil, but Rachel Harries and Riccardo both manage to put in an appearance as Rachel makes Elderflower cordial and Richard meets TV's celebrity vet, Steve Leonard. Back at Lower Blakemere Farm Phil's mind is on yet another pesticides problem. Which isn't entirely to the satisfaction of one of this week's iTunes reviewers... Still, we get to find out how many worms make a hooch; it's the sort of information you'll only hear in the cyber-highlight of the week.

Length: 25 mins 27 secs | First netcast on Jun 08 2009 - It's Day Six of the 2009 Hay Festival and the weather has returned to what passes for normal in worst-weather field (it's raining hard).

Wiggly Podcast 0184Live from the Hay Festival
Length: 43 mins 34 secs | First netcast on Jun 01 2009 - It's the second year of the Wiggly Garden in the Hay Festival grounds and Richard takes Heather for a tour. However, it seems that the willow bowers are too small, or is that Richard is too big? Heather's claim that 2.4 million people listened to the Podcast in one day astounds Richard; but he has to wait for an explanation until after Heather finishes her on-camera chat with Jen and Beck, two cousins who are setting up a new floristry business under the watchful eye of Monty Don on his new TV series 'My Dream Farm'. Back in the garden, Heather's new chickens have been given stagey names, so they decide to act like stars...

Wiggly Podcast 0183The Bee Swarm
Length: 20 mins 10 secs | First netcast on May 25 2009 - Heather, Richard and Rachel Harries gather to complete last week's show with reports on the CPRE's Local Food Initiative and raising chickens, but the bees in the Wiggly Hive decide to take that very moment to swarm. Hannah is called for and is soon into her beekeeping suit. The excitement mounts, so perhaps that's excuses Richard for blurting out a State Secret!

Wiggly Podcast 0182A Stroll in the Garden
Length: 28 mins 17 secs | First netcast on May 18 2009 - After last week's noise and bustle, it's a much quieter show this time around. Heather and Richard tour the Wiggly Garden visiting the pond, the wildflower meadow, the secret orchard, the tulip cutting patch and the vegetable garden, with side trips to the beehive, the shed and the greenhouse. It all goes so well that there's no time to hear the pieces the Team have brought along about chickens and local food. Still, Monty manages to slip in a quick Montycast. Listen carefully at the end and you might just hear the honeybees in the background: a taste of things to come next week...
