We Are: Convinced that gardening MATTERS. Bored with perfect magazine
gardens. In love with real, rambling,
chaotic, dirty, bug-ridden gardens. Suspicious of the “horticultural
industry.” Delighted by people with a passion for plants. Appalled by chemical warfare in the garden. Turned off by any activities
that involve “landscaping” with “plant materials.” Flabbergasted at the idea of a “no
maintenance garden.” Gardening our asses off. Having a hell of a lot of fun. |
Change is good

Read all about it here. Yes, your hard-working gardenblogger was there for the Press Opening
(look official and carry a business card, any business card). Here's a shot of Master Gardener volunteers planting a tree there last August. I just can't resist that strong women-of-a-certain-age look.
This Just In - Don't miss Annie in Austin's great comment, in which she describes the actual congressional battle between the lowly marigold and the higher-class rose.
