Kenai Garden Talk
Anything to do with growing, raising and producing your own food on the Kenai Peninsula is fodder for this show, from aphids to zucchini, maintaining high tunnels to processing high-bush cranberries, selling at farmers markets to putting up produce for winter. In each show, we’ll pick seasonal trends and topics, harvest tips from master gardeners, profile people who are cultivating creative ideas and dig into whatever other interesting things crop up.
