Leonardslee Hustle | Season 1 Episode 1 

 In this debut episode of the ‘Growing Leonardslee’ podcast, Adam is joined by Head Gardener Jamie, Restaurant Interlude’s Jean and estate owner Penny Streeter OBE.  

 They discuss one of the most popular seasons to enjoy the visual delights of Leonardslee: Spring.  

Jamie explains how he had to find his bearings in the 250 acres of woodland and prepare for the April cold snap in addition to being thrust into the world of wallaby husbandry as he joined the estate in January.   

Penny and Adam recount the trials and tribulations of restoring the gardens after 10 years of neglect, and how residents of West Sussex kindly provided records and pictures.  

We also speak to our Michelin Star award-winning chef Jean Delport, who has been foraging the estate for ingredients to feature in his wonderful tasting menu. You will hear about how he collects and cooks Japanese knotweed and taps birch trees for their sap to make syrup!
