Peter clears the ground and plans planting. Tha Pàdruig a’tionndadh na h-ùireach.

Peter starts to clear the ground and plans what to plant in spring with help from Tearlach. Tha Pàdruig a’tionndadh sa ghàrradh agus  a’coimhead dè chuireas e as t-Earrach.

Gàrradh Phàdruig follows keen newbie gardener Peter MacQueen, as he sets about transforming his back garden in the heart of Glasgow from a messy, neglected disaster zone to productive - and aesthetically pleasing - outdoor space.

Firstly, Peter clears the ground, removing old rotten decks and the garden shed that is falling to bits.  Tearlach Quinnell pops in to visit, and give advice on how best to plan a veg patch and work with the space available. Peter heads out in the boat near Oban with his dad and they collect seaweed to use as fertiliser. Soon most of the ground work is done, and the new sleepers are in position to form raised beds.

The series is filmed across a season, from January to October. Seòras the dog is with Peter all of the time - Westies love to get their paws dirty!

Tha’n t-sreath seo, Gàrradh Phàdruig, a’tighinn bhon ghàrradh aig Pàdruig MacCuinn – nach do chuir làmh riamh roimhe air, thuige seo. Ach tha làn duil aige an gàrradh-cùil am meadhan Ghlaschu, bùrach robach fàs, ùrachadh gu bhi na lios torrach, brèagha sam bi e tlachdmhor ùine chur seachad.

Sa chiad phrògram chì sinn Pàdruig a’sgioblachadh, a’leagal seann seada, agus a’ tionndadh; innsidh Teàrlach Quinnell dha mar is fheàrr a nì e feum dhen talamh a th’aige. Thèid e mach san eathar cuide ri athair is gheibh iad feamainn son todhar. Tha’n deasachadh cha mhòr ullamh, agus tha seann trasnaichean rèile aige a nì ceapaichean àrda.
Tha an t-sreath sgaoilte thar trì ràithean, bhon Fhaoilleach chun an Damhair. Tha Seòras an cù an còmhnaidh deiseil Pàdruig a’ chuideachadh – ‘sann a tha spògan salach a’còrdadh math ri abhagan!
