- The Gestalt Gardener - December 5, 2025
- Date posted
- 5 months ago
- Description
- During this cold, dreary weather, Felder and callers light up the studio with questions and conversations about the wintry weather gardens and how to decorate your yard for the holidays even during the ongoing storms. Let's Get Muddy!
Each week, horticulturalist Felder Rushing shares stories, answers questions and just talks gardening. Of course, you’ll hear a bit of “cheesy music” in every program and you might hear a bad joke or two as well. The Gestalt Gardener is a long-time favorite on MPB Think Radio, due in no small part to Felder’s laid-back, your-neighbors-might-talk-but-so-what approach to gardening.
Email Felder anytime at garden@mpbonline.org and listen Friday mornings at 9 and Saturday mornings at 10 to The Gestalt Gardener on MPB Think Radio. And in the meantime, as Felder says, get out and get dirty.
