With at least two feet of fresh snow now blanketing most of Vermont, spring - and gardening - still feel like quite a ways away. But it's never too early to start thinking about your garden... planning it out on paper, and ordering seeds.  For inspiration, we talk to Ellen Ecker Ogden, whose new book, The Complete Kitchen Garden is a combination of recipes and garden design. She wrote it largely to inspire would-be gardeners to create their own fruit and vegetable gardens, and get excited about cooking.

And here's a sneak peak at two of the recipes in "The Complete Kitchen Garden" -- Mache and Chicken Salad with Lemon Tahini Dressing and Asparagus Soup with Coconut Lemon Crème. 

 

Also on the program, a live performance by local singer/songwriter Joshua Panda, whose music is a combination of country and soul.
