Spring pests in the veggie garden

This spring has been really busy and I realized that I had a brain fart and posted this episode on our sister podcast Unwanted Guests. While some of you may have already listened to it as you may listen to both, I wanted to post it here where it belongs for those of you who may not tune into the other podcast.

So here it is...the missing spring pests in the veggie garden episode....sorry it's late in coming.
