Gardening Resources (Audio)

For you gardeners on the go, we thought we'd share with you three of our favorite gardening podcasts.  Listen to these every week and you will be well on your way to being a better gardener.  If you don't have an MP3 player, you can listen to all of these on your computer.

Who do you listen to?  We'd love to hear your suggestions in the comments section at the end of the post.




The Self-Sufficient Gardener

Jason commented on our blog recently and that gave us the idea of sharing some of our favorite gardening resources.  His 20-30 minute podcast comes out every week or so and is a great source of information.  He shows how to have a great garden using what you have on hand without spending a fortune.

You Bet Your Garden

Mike is the former editor of Organic Gardener magazine and his show airs on radio stations around the US.  His 50 minute show comes out weekly and is the best gardening podcast out there.

Gardening with GLT's Dean of Green

Don Schmidt is a professor at the University of Illinois.  In his weekly NPR show, he spends 10 minutes answering one listener's question from his mail.  It's not always about edible plants, but it is an entertaining and informative show.
