Netflix has announced This Is a Gardening Show, a refreshing and whimsical take on gardening hosted by Zach Galifianakis. The six-episode series launches on Earth Day, April 22, 2026.
Rather than positioning himself as an expert, Galifianakis approaches the subject with curiosity and self-effacing humor, aiming to learn alongside his audience and provide viewers with valuable, accessible, and educational tools for their own gardens.
The series blends lighthearted comedy with a sincere appreciation for people and the planet, and is ultimately about the joy of connecting with the earth.
“Zach brings an infectious warmth and humor that makes the world of gardening accessible and delightful for all ages,” said producer Chris Kim. “He can leave you in stitches one moment and, in the next breath, have you genuinely convinced that horse manure is the chocolate soufflé of the gardening world, and before you know it, you’re googling the nearest stable.”
“He is genuinely interested in how to grow stuff,” added director Brook Linder. “Making this show often felt like Zach’s excuse to talk to other gardeners.
“I kinda think his garden was struggling and he needed help he couldn’t get by walking up to these people in their backyard. You will see a grown man honestly gasp when shown the proper way to plant a seed. This is peak TV.”
This Is a Gardening Show comes from production company RadicalMedia in association with Billios Productions for Netflix.
Each episode is 15 to 20 minutes long, and the series is executive-produced by Zach Galifianakis, Frank Schema, and Jon Kamen.
