Last fall at the Kinsale Arts Festival, Mary joined Jim Carroll for a Banter session. Listen in here.

This week, we’re talking gardening on the Banter podcast. Mary Reynolds is best known for her Celtic Sanctuary Irish wildflower garden, which won a gold medal at the Chelsea Flower Show in 2002, but she is a landscape designer with a very singular vision when it comes to nature and wildscapes. A film about her life called Dare To Be Wild – written and directed by Vivienne de Courcy, starring Emma Greenwell and Tom Hughes and shot in west Cork and Ethiopia – will be released later in the year. This podcast was recorded at last year’s Kinsale Arts Festival.
