Pumpkins and Squash

In this episode, we talk with food historian and author Dr. William Woys Weaver, about pumpkins and squash. The plant profile is on Closed Bottle Gentian and we share what's going on in the garden as well as some upcoming local gardening events and this week's garden tasks in the What's New segment. We close out with the Last Word on Purring Among Petals from Christy Page of Green Prints.
