Get Your Garden Set for Spring Planting
Get Your Garden Set for Spring Planting-April 2024
Apr 8, 2026 11:42 AM

After a mild winter, spring is springing in Chicago and it’s time to get back into the garden. The Organic Gardener Jeanne Nolan is joining us for a new season of growing in the Chicago Tonight garden.

This year, we’re focusing on popular, tried-and-true crops that reliably yield plenty of veggies for a summer’s worth of snacking – but before we get growing, we’ll talk about how to get the garden back into shape for the new season, from aerating the soil to amending it.

Vote for two types of radishes.
