In a recent episode of Big Blend Radio's Garden Gossip Podcast, TurfMutt's President & CEO, Kris Kiser, appeared to discuss the Foundation's 2026 Backyarding Trends. The conversation focused on how outdoor spaces are evolving into purpose-driven, high-performance landscapes.
Watch the podcast here.
On the podcast, Kris discusses the rise of the 365-day landscape, right-sized outdoor zones, precision tech-guided gardening, dog-friendly “barkitecture,” pocket forests, and the growing “prosumer” mindset in outdoor tools. Native plants, coexisting with wildlife, the role of parks and community green spaces, and how backyarding supports family bonding and quality of life are also included in the discussion.
