Garden

Gardening is both an art and an occupation, an enjoyable and creative pastime with very real (and often edible!) results. Gardening has gone in and out of vogue in recent years, but experienced a resurgence in 2009 due to increased environmental awareness, lowered economic standards, and the example set by American First Lady Michelle Obama, who oversaw the creation of a new garden on the White House grounds.

There are lots of passionate gardeners on the blogosphere: flower lovers, home gardeners, sustainability and permaculture experts, slow foodies, and renegades all document their love of flora with essays and photos. Whether you're a beginning gardener or a seasoned dirt wrangler, you'll find a vibrant online community with knowledge and experience to make your garden grow.
