London College of Garden Design to sponsor new design series for top gardening podcast

The London College of Garden Design is to sponsor a new series interviewing some of the world's best garden designers on ‘Roots And All’, the podcast that last week won 'Podcast of the Year' at the Garden Media Guild Awards.

The first episode features Thomas Rainer, Principal Designer at Phyto Studio in Virginia and co-author of the book ‘Planting In A Post-Wild World’. LCGD are also supporting a workshop day in Central London with Thomas on Saturday 18th January 2020.

Sarah Wilson host of ‘Roots And All’ said “I attended the London College of Garden Design myself and I’m always banging on about what a brilliant place it is to study if you’re looking to get in to garden design”.

Director of the London College of Garden Design Andrew Fisher Tomlin explained the thinking behind the sponsorship: “Supporting podcasts are an integral part of our marketing strategy now. Our previous sponsorship of Peter Donegan’s ‘Sod Show’ and now Sarah’s ‘Roots And All’, are a reflection of a growing interest in and improvement in the very high quality of broadcasts that are beyond the very traditional form of radio shows.”

The College is one of Europe’s foremost specialist design colleges. It offers professional level courses including the one-year Garden Design Diploma and a unique Planting Design Diploma delivered over 5 months.

Both courses are taught from the College’s home in the world-renowned Royal Botanical Gardens, Kew.

The Thomas Rainer workshop day is being ran by Gillian Goodson with the support of LCGD and London Stone. For more details visit www.lcgd.org.uk
