Join us for a special outdoor recording from the beautiful New Forest as we unwind after the Dorset Chilli Festival. We share our festival highlights, including the fantastic people we met and the exciting new products we discovered. Get ready for updates on our chilli growing adventures, sneak peeks at upcoming projects like our outdoor kitchen, and honest reflections on balancing different content for our YouTube channel. We'll also chat about our plans for the wildflower area and chicken coop, and discuss the challenges and joys of content creation. Expect some unexpected guest appearances from the local wildlife! Whether you're a chilli fiend, a gardening fan, or just curious about the world of content creation, this laid-back conversation has something for everyone. So grab your favourite (possibly spicy) beverage and join us for some chilli chat! 📱Questions/Comments- Leave a WhatsApp voice note: +44 7354 201043 🔥Hand crafted hot sauce https://chillichump.com/shop🌱Quality Chilli Pepper Seeds: https://chillichumpseeds.com 🪣Soil mix: https://youtu.be/hbcRpC7vG-c 🗣️Join the ChilliChump Public Discord Today! https://discord.com/invite/BaFX9wvwNj
