There's still time to plant vegetables. Plus we talk about wildflower seed mixes, flowers in May, daylilies, mimulus, problems with okra, more about things digging and other wildlife garden problems and opportunities, redhumped caterpillars and leaf-footed bugs hatching now, whether squash and pumpkins hybridize, and more.

On tonight’s show:
These days, you can get all the quick takes and snap judgments you want. They seem easier to find than facts, partly because they're catnip to the algorithms and impulses that drive social media. Today’s guest is doing something different with opinions — something more difficult, in my book, and more useful, especially in the long run. Since fall 2022, Claire Schad has been writing opinion columns for the California Aggie, the student newspaper and news organization at the University of California, Davis.
Writing opinion columns will seem like an outdated, narrow pursuit — newspapers in any format have much less influence than they did — but a good column that hits its mark generates ideas, not just reactions. It can create room for nuance, for admitting and engaging different points of view. Writers learn about people and ideas, and how to make ideas useful. How to move them forward.
Claire is graduating in June, and we talk about her experiences today on Davisville.
Please join us at 6 p.m. Pacific for Divine Intervention.

From Compost to seed to root to bloom to seed to compost...Hey, tonight on the Electric Compost Heap on KDRT 95.7fm, Dug Deep will be joined by his timeslotmate, Jess Goddèsse, for a fundraiser-themed combined version of their respective radio shows, sort of an Electric Divine Compost Intervention Heap, if you will.
