Doesn't some fresh veggies sound great in the dead of the winter? Here's how you can do it!

    ENCORE EPISODE: Bringing back one you may have missed in the archives... listen into VINE TIME! Gourds, Pumpkins or Squash?

    Mike has a mystery fruit growing in NW Ohio, bringing up the question about Cucurbita (Latin for gourd) or herbaceous vines in the gourd family. Then, the alternative use of pumpkin seeds... got to listen in for that ONE ALONE!
