Great feature! Love it!

My light badge looks kinda dim... I better get some more tips sent in to "fertilize it" and get it nice and lush (green)!

Great idea, Trish!

No worries, Trish. I knew you had a lot on your plate, er uhh, in our garden vernacular, "a long row to hoe"! :>)

I'm still jotting some down as time allows. This hot weather has me going out, coming in to cool off, go back out, come back in. I need a revolving door on the shoffice!

Christine-

You need to keep an eye on this forum: http://garden.org/forums/view/...
I posted here: The thread "Fun random tip- come look!" in Site Talk forum

I also always post updates both on Facebook and the newsletter!

This is going to be so helpful! From little acorns grow big trees... I bet there will be more and more ideas growing from the first round of tips.
GREAT IDEA!
(Trish, I owe you some photos... been busy for the last day or two but I'll get there!)

I think this will be an outstanding resource for gardeners!

Susie- no problem. Still most of the tips don't have photos yet, so I'm just running the ones that do first. I also haven't given the photographers badges yet. I did say that I'm a day or two behind, so I can't give anyone else a hard time!

You mean we were to submit photos, too? Guess I missed that part.

I better go re-read the Tips thread...

Shoe- It was not a requirement at all. I didn't want to scare anyone off! I had some volunteer photographers do some for me. That said, if you have pictures of your own tips, by all means- send 'em along!

Whew- thanks, Christine!
