Gardening tips, tricks, and advice, in short bite-size episodes.
Do you ever wish you could catch those tidbits of wisdom that some people throw out without warning? Well, in our new Farmer Friday episodes – Farmer Greg shares quick thoughts, revelations, tips, and general farming advice in bite-sized and fun episodes. Sometimes it might be Greg just sharing a thought that hit him while working in the yard, or a really cool inspiration from the garden, and occasionally he’ll answer some listener questions. Other times he will catch a moment with a farming friend or podcast guest to share educational farming tidbits.
This quick podcast episode is designed to be brief and not take up your day. So… listen in and enjoy this Garden snack…
In This Brief Bite:
Vicki Hird reminds us that it is possible to have bugs without having a bug problem. In fact, when it comes to bugs, the more you have in your garden the better! Vicki provides information about the beneficial roles that bugs play and she tells how to nurture and protect them. Learn what to do to encourage (and live with!) a healthy bug population in your own garden as well as how to advocate for them in your community.
