This week our intrepid duo (Tom and Darrin) delve into garden conditions, both good and bad, with the ongoing early season heat. They discuss the highlights of the “free crop” from garlic beds, as well as an “inspirational” angle on approaching the challenge of climate change. And why using drip irrigation is a bonus that is in alignment with City of Durango water restrictions presently in place. Such Adult discussion is somewhat rare for these two, but it happens occasionally.
