You’d like to go on vacation. Your family wants you to go on vacation. But you don’t know how to leave your garden. So you don’t go on vacation.

Wrong answer.

You NEED a vacation. You just need to prep your garden and make it Vacay-Ready.

This week Leslie and Marianne dive into what it really takes to leave your garden without the guilt. From prepping your plants to prepping your mindset, they want to help you take a break without sacrificing your blooms.

Whether you’re heading to the beach or taking a long weekend right in the middle of the growing season, you can come home to a thriving garden. With the right prep, your beans will be just fine.

All this plus the puzzling but indisputable link between testicles, armpit hair, and tomatoes.

It's another wildly inappropriate episode of The Garden Mixer, so carpe your diems and get that garden Vacay-Ready!

Welcome back! The girls are rested, refreshed, reenergized, and ready to tackle the overgrown gardens that await them with the tools they love this week.

From can't-be-without pruners to surprising new finds, Leslie and Marianne dish the dirt on the implements that help them dig it.

Are brand names important? What’s a seckie? How do you pronounce Okasune? And what on earth is Marianne’s problem with the hori-hori and will the woman ever let it rest?

Apparently not.

Also up for discussion — herons, rabbits, the elusive golden shovel, and why these hard-working gardeners aren’t eating breakfast these days. Yep, it’s a random mix of wonderful and we’re so glad you’ve joined us.

Waaaayy back when this podcast was just Leslie doing Into the Garden with Leslie, Marianne was a frequent flyer even though she was just a guest at that time. In this episode, Marianne and Leslie team up with Scott Beuerlein to talk about their "Dear Gardener" correspondence on Garden Rant.

Next week Leslie and Marianne, are back, tanned rested and ready for the summer garden and they will be talking about tools!
