Greetings from Buffalo, one of the best-kept secrets among garden cities in the country!
Gardening seems to have gone viral in this city, thanks to Garden Walk, an annual event that now opens 350 neighborhood gardens to perhaps 50,000 visitors each July: once someone in the neighborhood starts planting, everybody wants to garden!
Garden Walk doesn't actually begin until later this month, but I am here with about 70 garden bloggers for a sneak preview, and it has been extraordinary, and so much more than just cute houses and nice gardens!
I will be writing about what I have seen in the days ahead, and posting plenty of pictures. But the packed schedule doesn't permit much time at the computer during my stay.
In the meantime, friend me on Facebook, where I will be posting photos and mini-updates. And on Twitter and Twitpic, where I will also post photos.
And, put Buffalo and Garden Walk on your bucket list!
