Our Final Harvest and Seed Saving Tips

 

John Bodensteiner and Kay Carnes stop by the studio and bring in the last of their garden treats. They also show us some new ways to save those seeds and herbs from our summer favorites to enjoy next year. John also shares a bit of Illinois history about a deadly native plant that may be growing in your backyard.
