We're on another journey to get you in the garden growing food, planting native and drought-tolerant plants.

No time to imagine? Then, we really want you in the garden. The best ideas are found there :)Victoryhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01620776985665346075noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1375283293141524721.post-47602311749366990372010-08-09T06:56:00.000-07:002010-08-09T06:56:51.210-07:00It's a Global ConcernSome of you may remember our May 15-16 gardening challenge weekend. There were Garden Work Parties in many locations to draw attention to our global climate issue through food gardening at home. I enjoyed the glee in the eyes of all of the volunteers that were at Garden Work Parties in Oakland and Berkeley CA. I wish I could have visited everyone around the globe that participated.

I think I'm just coming up for a bit of air after the whirlwind 350 Garden Challenge. I'm jazzed about the response received from so many people around the world that are interested in growing food at home. We've just scratched the surface and will continue the movement to get more folks in their garden space to grow food.
Some of our volunteers last weekend just couldn't Victoryhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01620776985665346075noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1375283293141524721.post-86325050445919316972010-05-09T11:16:00.000-07:002010-05-12T17:24:16.909-07:00What to do now?As we're nearing our big challenge weekend; I thought I'd give you a bit more to think about.

That was quite a challenge and that has taken be away from the blog. So, I'm taking a little breather this morning (before going to a Garden Work Party) to share this journey with you.

Today has started to be a wonderful weather day and a day to meet new friends and gardeners. After working a bit in The Victory Garden Foundation's demonstration garden; I walked over to a Garden Work Party at Alice's home. Because of another commitment; my plan was to do some power gardening at Alice's for 30 minutes. Well, 30 minutes became 60 minutes. What a wonderful experience.
