The Soul Gardener

Ever wondered what happens when you mix a love of gardening with a brain that sees the world a little differently? Well, meet Charlie Agar – our very own Yorkshire Soul Gardener.

 

Every month, Charlie invites you into his wonderfully quirky horticultural world - packed with gardening wisdom, classic soul tunes, and a good dollop of Yorkshire wit. Whether he’s sharing top tips for taming tomatoes, explaining why moles hate sparkly windmills, or gently reminding you that "sitting outside with a brew absolutely counts as gardening," Charlie’s mission is simple: make gardening joyful, inclusive, and accessible for everyone.

 

As an autistic and dyslexic gardener, Charlie knows first-hand how neurodivergent minds can bring unique superpowers to the world of plants. His shows aren't just about pruning and planting - they’re about celebrating different ways of seeing, thinking, and growing. And yes, while he’s rubbed shoulders with royalty (more than once!), he’s happiest with his hands in the soil and a classic soul track playing in the background.

 

So, if you fancy some gardening guidance with a side order of laughter and Motown, tune into The Yorkshire Soul Gardener. You'll leave with a smile on your face, new tricks for your garden, and a renewed belief that your way of gardening is absolutely the right way.
