- Felder comes to the studio today to do a lot of yakking with just him and Java. They talk about bushes that want to be vines, cut a persimmon open, and discuss the weird spider web looking things in trees. Or is it weird? Let's get our hands dirty!
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.

- Description
- The Mississippi State Fair is in full swing, Jackson State University is celebrating homecoming, and the high temperature is in the low 80s. I believe fall is here to stay! Or is it? Join Felder as he discusses how to prepare your fall garden and explains why peonies do not thrive in the South. Let's get our hands dirty!
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.
