This week, the guys continue their discussion on preparing for the summer gardening season.

In places like Alaska, bear activity can be quite prevalent, even in cities such as Anchorage! Jeff and Jonathan share some of their personal encounters with bears. The takeaway from these stories is the importance of cleaning out last season's bird feeders, as they can attract bears.

After the break, they delve into the process of identifying the best types of soil, either online or at local gardening stores.

Lastly, they respond to a listener's question about the application of leftover coffee grounds.

Tune in for all this and more in this episode of Teaming With Microbes!
