Gardeners’ World viewers were deeply touched by a poignant piece featuring Adam Frost at Bedfords Park Walled Garden, not far from Romford. A team of local volunteers rejuvenated the 18th-century kitchen garden of an estate, now led by retired horticulture lecturer Lois Amos.
Adam praised Lois for her leadership and the volunteer group’s enthusiasm while touring the revived garden, reports the Express. He said: “Lois, you have got an amazing group of volunteers, haven’t you? They seem to have the same passion about the place that you have.”
Lois, agreeing with a chuckle, responded: “Yes, I’ve infected them with it,” which led Adam to jest: “You have infected them, knowing you.”
