Let's go for 350

On a single weekend, May 14-15, 350  landscapes will be transformed into bountiful Victory Gardens that use water wisely to grow food all while educating and empowering community and supporting local businesses. We had a great time last year in gardens and seeing gardens from around the country. Some of your photos are posted in our photo album.

Taking the challenge
The activities on that weekend can be as simple as planting a fruit tree or a tomato plant in a pot. You could simply invite some friends to your place to chat about gardening, the environment, and how to reduce our carbon footprint. This is an opportunity to create innovative gardens on front yards, apartment patios, school and church grounds, and business premises while being waterwise. I use the term "waterwise" to emphasize the need to conserve water in all aspects of life including you food production.

Rewards of the challenge
And, look at what you can have on your plate in a short time.
Over the next six weeks or so, I'll provide some tips for organizing your challenge, starting, and maintaining your garden. If you start today sowing seeds; you will have radish, spinach, lettuce, basil and more ready to put on your plate.

So, help us sow the seeds and spread the love -  be a fan at our Facebook 350 Victory Garden Challenge page and follow us on Twitter.
