Host Glen Andresen and guest Jim Gilbert are back in the studio live. Did you know we have a new Plant Hardiness Zone? We do, and you didn't even have to move! We discuss what this means for you and what you can (mostly reliably) grow. Plus, it's time to plan for the upcoming growing season, and if you haven't been inundated by seed and nursery catelogs yet, you're lucky. Also, what do "atmospheric rivers" mean for your plants? And, the latest about Jim and Joe's "An Oregon Story" documentary.
As always, we'll have a new Plant of the Month (quince) and a new Garden Stumper (the winner gets a free sharpening of a hand tool from Cully Farm Store in Northeast Portland!). Plus, our Dirtbag Dictionary term is "compost tea." And, of course, what's annoying Glen this month...or at least what he's been thinking about.
Don't forget, if you have a gardening question, and don't want to call in, you can always email us at thedirtbag@kboo.org -- we'll answer your question on the air during the next show.
The Dirtbag, a garden variety show... Listen. Laugh. Learn.
