Bake and Brian sing the praises of Fort Wayne's Farmers Market, where they have a booth every Saturday. The laughs flow easy as grocery store hamburger is disparaged in comparison to locally-produced meats, and carrots replace candy bars in this off-the-cuff miniature episode!

Blake and Brian Young have spent a lifetime working in the family greenhouse. Master designers of large flower pots, they have distilled the art down to a solid philosophy: the thriller, the filler, and the spiller. Something tall and flashy in the middle, something to take over the empty space, and something to trail down the sides. It's a combination that never fails to impress. 

Also in this episode, they talk about propagating their prized Monstera Thai Constellation and discuss their plant of the week, or fifteen plants of the week: various species of tradescantia.
