Harvesting and ripening pears, pruning stone fruits now, planting leguminous cover crops

Host Glen Andresen and guest Jim Gilbert Jim Gilbert discuss harvesting pears, sea berries…and believe it or not, pruning cherries, plums and other stone fruits now. Plus, it's time to think about (and actually planting) leguminous cover crops. And, what's happening on the farm with Jim and his upcoming trip to China.

As always, we'll answer your gardening questions, have a new Plant of the Month (chives), define our Dirtbag Dictionary words (micronutrient), quiz you with a new Garden Stumper, and, maybe this will become a new "feature," what's annoying Glen this month!

The Dirtbag... Listen. Laugh. Learn.
