It's been a bumper year for apples and pears; learn how to properly store them. Plus, cover crops.

It's been a bumper year for apples and pears so host Glen Andresen and guest Jim Gilbert talk about how to properly store these fruits. It's also prime time for planting cover crops. We'll give you a rundown on planting and our favorites.

As always, we'll answer your gardening questions, have a new Plant of the Month (storage apples -- those that keep well), quiz you with a new Garden Stumper, and fill you in on what's going on in the honey bee hive this month.

The Dirtbag... Listen. Laugh. Learn.
