Protect your plants now--next month may be too late!

Host Glen Andresen and co-pilot Jim Gilbert are back, for sure, with another live show. Are you ready for winter? Are your plants? Now's the time to get ready for the inevitable cold season. Plus, there are still plenty of leaves to be had--go get some! And, if there is time, more on honey harvesting, extracting and processing.

As always, we'll have a new Plant of the Month (persimmon) and a new Garden Stumper (the winner gets a free sharpening of a gardening hand tool from Cully Farm Store in Northeast Portland!). Plus, our Dirtbag Dictionary term is "tomentose." And, of course, what Glen is trying to understand this month.

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.
