Cultivate Curiosity with Frank Hyman The Beet

This week, Jacques chats with gardener, author, and tomato guru Frank Hyman. They dig into Frank’s roots in the gardening world, and how many people fall into gardening through a simple first infatuation with plants. Frank shares how he turned his nine callings into a career and explains why tomatoes have captured his heart for decades. Along the way, the conversation wanders into some thoughtful (and fun) philosophy about why so many gardeners end up being polymaths. Connect with Frank Hyman: The only thing Frank Hyman likes more than gardening is talking about gardening!
