Why Citrus Trees Are Important + Perfect Days (the film) with Joey Hernandez (Writer + Editor at Bon Appétit)

·52 min·1 clip

I'm tearing up. I really love citrus... it's just like the giving tree, you know, and I was so sad when I finally left that house for college and I was like, I miss my tree.

Inside Outside podcast debut features Jessica Murnan (horticultural therapy founder) and guest Joey Hernandez (food/wine journalist) exploring intersection of nature and indoor lifestyle obsessions. Joey shares formative childhood memories of playing in bushes and climbing cherry trees in Southern California, and the profound impact of growing citrus trees. Both hosts become emotionally vulnerable discussing citrus as privilege and 'sunshine,' tracing how childhood nature memories inform adult tastes and wellbeing. Episode bridges horticultural therapy benefits with cultural/food interests.
