Have you ever wondered how gardeners of old decided when to plant? I mean, they didn't have

access to the internet, chat GPT, or cooperative extension guides to give them their average

last frost date, and they didn't have a weather app to tell them if a cold front was coming

through soon. This has always fascinated me to realize that gardeners have

been growing food for thousands of years without the help of all of these things that are so

second nature to us. So, how in the world did they do it? We may think we're smart and advanced,

but if we were to sit down with

gardeners of old, we'd realize how much knowledge and wisdom we lack, especially when it comes

to reading nature's cues. But we do have technology now. We do have science and research. Should we

just throw all that away? I don't think so.

I think we are now in the best position to blend the two worlds so that we can make the most

informed decisions, especially dealing with a climate that seems to be changing by the year.

Today, we're going to explore what we do know

about what gardeners traditionally used to know when to plant. We'll talk about whether this has

any backing in what we now know scientifically, or if it's simply tradition and folklore. This is

the kind of episode that I hope you sit back and enjoy.

Trust me, it's a fun one. Before we get started, this episode is brought to you in part by
