Episode description

Your gardening tools have been neglected for too long. With spring around the corner, it's time to get them sharp and ready for use. Don and John go over some basic tips for maintaining your garden tools and discuss how to make sure your pesticides or fertilizers are ok for use after sitting all winter.

Also, after an unfortunate encounter with his snowblower, Don thinks we might have a vole problem in our region this spring.
