Holly shares the symptoms she's experiencing, including hair loss, and how a plant-based diet can help.But don't worry – it's not all hormone-talk! We soon get onto the topic at hand… urban foraging! Molly shares her tips on how to sustainably forage for wild garlic, where to find it and what to cook with it. We then delve into our bank holiday plans and share inspiration for what to serve if you're planning a party or get together.DON'T MISS our 150th episode next week (4th May) where we will be reflecting on some of the amazing guests we've spoken to over the past 2 1/2 years, what we've learnt from them (and each other) and raising a glass of bubbly to all things vegan.
