About this episode

Kevin and Jacques discuss spring gardening techniques, focusing on garlic and potatoes, while emphasizing community and sustainable practices.

In this episode of The Beet, the boys are back! Kevin is rethinking the harvest, focusing on using what he grows instead of chasing maximum yields. Jacques is expanding his container garden, and both are deep in garlic mode, proving you can build a thriving setup (and community) one bulb at a time. Along the way, they dig into potatoes once reserved for royalty, why raised beds might be the best way to grow them, and how to trellis grow bags like a pro.
