Gardeners love to hear from other gardeners, and talking over the back fence is a great way to share your enthusiasm and gardening ideas. Now that the web offers us the chance to extend the back fence conversation beyond our own neighborhoods, we invite you to share a favorite gardening topic with us and our website readers. Just send us your idea for consideration, and include your name, town, and a way to contact you by email or U.S. Mail.
