What calms you the most? Rain noise? Meditation? Napping in the middle of the day with the bedroom window open? For Gwyneth Paltrow – actor, businesswoman and British Vogue’s November 2025 cover star – it’s spending time in her garden, tending to her vegetables (lettuce, courgette, jalapeño!), and padding through her apple orchard with her dog and “best friend”, Gaucho.
“We’ve had this house for coming up on 20 years,” Paltrow shares with British Vogue from her Long Island summer home, in an exclusive video that you can watch in its entirety below. “When I got this house is when I started planting my kitchen garden. We planted all of these apple trees, we have a peach tree. And then over the years, I’ve experimented with planting different things in the vegetable garden. I really started gardening much later in life. I’m a New York City kid, so we didn’t grow up with any access to gardening, and I feel like I used to really not have a green thumb at all.”
