THERE A VEGGIE
everywhere a veggie
I am running out of time to find a place to plant a garden. When I moved to a smaller home while we searched for a new home or property to build on, I knew I wouldn’t be able to plant here. So, I may have to resort to a window garden and a few containers this year. I could live with mostly herbs and lettuce as long a my husband could coax tomatoes out of the containers. Tomatoes hate me; don’t ask. Vegetables are my interpretation of a garden. This next Call wants your interpretation of a garden. Don’t dismiss this one without investigating…
Check out this Call for Entries from Artcenter Traverse City and the Botanic Garden at the Historic Barns Park (Michigan) for Art in the Garden. A traditional garden theme, but open media & liberal interpretation. This could be an interesting challenge…
