Publicity for balcony gardeners!!

article in SHAPE magazine!

I absolutely had to post this one!

I have a subscription to SHAPE magazine, which for those who don't know, is a quality magazine for women about fitness and health, filled with good stuff like: exercises, kitchen/cooking trends, food facts, psychology articles, travel articles, fashion/beauty tips, weight loss stories, recipes, etc. I like it (this is my only subscription) because it seems applicable to the average women - no overly-priced recommendations, not too "star-struck", and in general down-to-earth and cool.

ANYWAY, as I was reading this month's edition, I turned the page and there was a short article about balcony gardening! Couldn't believe it!

The title here is "Gourmet Gardening on the Balcony", and the article draws attention to the growing popularity of personal balcony gardens in New York, in particular. They also mention using planting bags and choosing balcony-friendly varieties of vegetables, and also recommend a few websites where you can find some gardening space here in Germany if you don't have a balcony.

Awesome! Kudos to SHAPE for giving balcony gardeners a shout out and showing how we are setting a trend! :)
