Thomas Jefferson's Flowers: Reading the Garden with Peggy Cornett

In this episode of<i> Grandma's Silver</i>, Allie Kochinsky sits down with Peggy Cornett, longtime Curator of Plants at Monticello, former director of the Thomas Jefferson Center for Historic Plants, and author of <i>Thomas Jefferson's Flowers</i>, to explore gardens as living records of history.<br /><br />Together, they discuss how historic landscapes preserve stories of daily life, seasonal rhythms, beauty, labor, and cultural exchange. Drawing on more than four decades of preserving Thomas Jefferson's botanical legacy, Peggy shares what the flowers cultivated at Monticello reveal about Jefferson's botanical interests, his international network of plant exchanges, and the many people, including enslaved gardeners and laborers, whose knowledge and work shaped the landscape.<br /><br />The detective work behind restoring historic gardens is also explored, along with how historians reconstruct landscapes from letters, archaeological evidence, and plant records, and why heirloom plants can serve as a form of living inheritance.<br /><br />In this episode, they discuss:<br /><ul><li>The inspiration behind <i>Thomas Jefferson's Flowers</i></li><li>How gardens function as living historical documents</li><li>Jefferson's passion for flowers and botanical exchange</li><li>The people whose labor sustained Monticello's gardens</li><li>Restoring historic landscapes</li><li>Heirloom plants</li><li>Seasonal rhythms in early America</li><li>What gardens reveal about identity and place</li></ul><b>RESOURCES</b><br /><ul><li>Visit Monticello's website <a href="https://www.monticello.org" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">here</a>.</li><li>Purchase the book on <a href="https://monticelloshop.org/products/thomas-jeffersons-flowers-paperback" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Monticello's site</a>, or on <a href="https://amzn.to/4gbz7XL" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Amazon</a>.</li></ul><br /><br /><br />If you enjoy <i>Grandma’s Silver</i>, follow the podcast and share this episode with a friend who loves heritage, design, and timeless living.

Summerville, SC: The Birthplace of Sweet Tea

This week, Allie Kochinsky virtually travels to <b>Summerville, South Carolina</b>, a historic Lowcountry town that proudly calls itself the "<b>Birthplace of Sweet Tea.</b>" At the center of the conversation is the town's Sweet Tea Trail, a self-guided experience connecting local businesses, history, food, and community through one of the South's most iconic traditions.<br /><br />But this episode isn't simply about a beverage; it's about hospitality as identity. About preserving small-town character in a changing South. About tourism rooted in storytelling rather than spectacle. And about why certain traditions, even simple ones, continue to hold emotional power.<br /><br />Allie, joined by <b>Cassie Ford</b>, <b>Director of Tourism</b>, explores the history of Summerville, the cultural mythology surrounding sweet tea, and what local traditions reveal about the places we call home.<br /><br /><b>RESOURCES: </b><br /><ul><li>Take a visit to the Summerville website <a href="https://www.visitsummerville.com" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">here</a>.</li><li>Follow along on <a href="https://www.facebook.com/visitsummerville" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Facebook</a> and/or <a href="https://www.instagram.com/visitsummerville/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Instagram</a>.</li><li><a href="https://www.visitsummerville.com/sweet-tea-trail#TrailGuideontheSweetTeaTrail" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Learn more</a> about the Sweet Tea Trail!</li></ul><br /><br /><br /><br />If you enjoy <i>Grandma’s Silver</i>, follow the podcast and share this episode with a friend who loves heritage, design, and timeless living.

Lycette Designs on Stitching Tradition

In this episode of <i>Grandma's Silver</i>, Allie Kochinsky is joined by <b>Jessica Chaney</b>, founder of <b>Lycette Designs</b>, for a conversation on needlepoint as more than just a pastime, but a practice rooted in patience, memory, and home.<br /><br />Together, they explore why this traditional craft is finding new relevance today, and what it offers in a culture that often prioritizes speed and convenience. From heirloom pillows to hand-stitched canvases, needlepoint occupies a unique space, both decorative and personal, shaped as much by the process as the finished piece.<br /><br />Jessica discusses the quiet discipline of making something by hand, how these objects evolve over time, and why they so often become part of a home's story. <br /><br /><b>RESOURCES</b><br /><ul><li><a href="https://www.lycettedesigns.com" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Shop</a> Lycette Designs online.</li><li><a href="https://www.lycettedesigns.com/pages/store?srsltid=AfmBOoqoxZIuhpZb7EPHuJXd-BYjTb_c98KMS1Us1BXNOjy5YazbeDeu" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Plan a trip</a> to the store(s).</li><li>Follow along on <a href="https://www.instagram.com/lycettedesigns/?hl=en" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Instagram</a>, <a href="https://www.tiktok.com/@lycettedesigns" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">TikTok</a>, and/or <a href="https://www.pinterest.com/lycettedesigns/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Pinterest</a>.</li></ul><br /><br />If you enjoy <i>Grandma’s Silver</i>, follow the podcast and share this episode with a friend who loves heritage, design, and timeless living.
