Spring is in the air on Better Homes and Gardens, with Graham discovering colourful Australian natives and Charlie getting the veggie patch ready for a fresh start.
Plus, Johanna catches up with Fast Ed at a bakery making a difference, while Dr Harry meets a very reluctant road-tripper and Colin prepares a Father’s Day feast.
JOHANNA – THE FRIENDSHIP BAKERY
For 20 years, Fast Ed joined Aussies in their lounge rooms each week, sharing some sensational recipes along the way. But these days, his life looks completely different. Ed’s been busy ‘baking the world a better place’ at the Friendship Bakery in Sydney’s Vaucluse, where he helps aspiring bakers and baristas with disabilities get the skills they need to get the job.

DR HARRY – DASH THE RELUCTANT ROAD TRIPPER
Meet Dash: a fun-loving golden retriever who’s always up for an epic adventure… but there’s just one problem. Dash refuses to get in the car and, at 40 kilos, it’s not exactly easy for his owners, Vannessa and Corey, to lift him in whenever it’s time for an outing.
COLIN – CRISP POTATO RÖSTI WITH FRIED EGGS
What do all the dads out there want this Father’s Day? A meal so good, they’ll want to eat it for breakfast, brunch, lunch and dinner, that’s what! Colin’s making crispy potato, bacon & herb rösti and serving it with fried eggs and a fetta, caper & rocket salad.
GRAHAM – PAWS AND PAPER
Who doesn’t love a vase bursting with vibrant blooms? And what better blooms to fill a vase than our beautiful Australian natives? This week, Graham’s at East Coast Wildflowers, on the NSW Central Coast, to catch up with farmers Craig and Claire.
Clarissa puts her spin on the takeaway classic Kung Pao Chicken (image – Seven)
CLARISSA – KUNG PAO CHICKEN
Kung Pao Chicken is the ultimate takeaway classic and Clarissa’s bringing its vibrant, punchy flavours straight to your table. With crushed Sichuan peppercorns and dried chillies to give the dish its signature tingling heat, plus roasted cashews and a to-die-for soy and black-vinegar sauce, this stir fry is fast, fiery and seriously delivers.
ADAM – NO FALLS FROM DIFFERENT WALLS
Not all walls are created equal. And if you’ve ever hung a set of shelves or a painting and it’s come crashing down, you’ll have learnt that the hard way. So, Adam’s showing you how to hang anything on any type of wall.
JULIET – HIDE YOUR KEYS AND FRAME THEM
If you’re always losing your keys, then you need to make this! Juliet’s creating a designated home for your keys that hides them away and doubles as a piece of art. Made with two off-the-shelf picture frames, this DIY will take no time to do…but you’ll be grateful for it every time you walk out the front door.

CHARLIE – SPRINGTIME FRESHEN UP
It’s a common story: you started a veggie patch last year with the best of intentions… but life got in the way and now you’re growing nothing more than a big patch of weeds. If that’s you, then spring is the perfect season to start fresh.
Better Homes and Gardens airs tonight, Friday 4 September, at 7pm on Seven and 7Plus – check local guides for times.
