In this first Garden Guys podcast for the 2023 season hosts Darrin and Tom talk about:

- How abnormal is the new normal as far as the weather goes

- Managing the Impact of soil temperatures on spring planting

- Seed sale recap

- Darrin’s medical adventure. 

- Making healthy food choices, even if you can’t grow a garden

We reached 20 - we're almost legal! We cover a bevy of topics - thinning, irrigation, and farmer market bucks - before we take a bit of a breather. 

They let us out of the studio again! We accost patrons at the Durango Farmers Market to see why they support our local farmers and ranchers. 

July is a chance to sit back, enjoy your garden while it's growing - observe what's successful, what you'd change next year, and learn from your hands-on experience.

We enter the doldrums of summer with some tips to keep up with the garden beds, the weeds, and the compost pile.

Tom interviews while Darrin works. Hmmm.... And a couple secrets come forward as Tom gets Beth, Darrin's wife, to divulge some dirt.

The rains come for most, hail arrives for others. We will discuss how the microclimates in our area greatly affect our gardens.

Mike and Mindy welcome us to their farm: Mountain Roots Produce out in Mancos, CO. A diverse farming operation at its finest. 

Where to find locally grown seeds? Can I eat weeds? How do I get rid of pocket gophers and other rodents? Pros and cons of vermiculture (worms)?

It happens. We make mistakes even after gardening for so many years.
