Green Side Up

GSU Host Richard Hentschel discusses the last of the gardening season. November gardening gives us a chance to finish up routine projects and to catch up on overdue gardening tasks. Late season vegetable gardening can mean harvesting the last of the root crops and healing them in at the edge of the garden for easy retrieval throughout the winter. Final clean-up of the garden and the last of the leaf pick-up means utilizing the compost pile again. As the season ends, garden equipment needs to be cleaned and stored properly for the winter too.
