The gardening season is in full swing, and NWGN is chock-full of great gardening ideas, instructions and inspiration. Lorene Edwards-Forkner has tips for growing delicious tomatoes in our fickle maritime climate. Deborah Horn has penned a fascinating story about PNW prairie plants. July Hays writes about two rose nurseries who have built their businesses with heirloom varieties. And Mary Gutierrez has important pet safety information about toxic algae.

Please use our website to keep in touch this season. Do you have extra plants or gardening supplies you'd like to sell, share or swap with other gardeners? Be sure to visit the "Gardener's Exchange" page.

We're offering tours, free product giveaways (plant and product drawings are available only through the "print" version of NWGN), and lots of great gardening information this season, so bookmark this site and check in often!
