Looking Back: Hellstrip Gardening

Before Down the Garden Path became a podcast, it was a weekly radio show on RealityRadio101.com! In this "vintage" episode from September 2016, Joanne Shaw discusses hellstrip gardening with author Evelyn Hadden, a national speaker and author of four garden books, including Hellstrip Gardening.

What's a Hellstrip?

We all contend with that troublesome stretch between the sidewalk and the road, or the space nestled between driveways – commonly referred to as the "hellstrip." It’s easy to neglect and figuring out how to address this area can be challenging. Evelyn explores strategies for revitalizing this space, potentially bringing positive changes to your neighbourhood.
