Welcome.
About Me.
I'm a garden blogger in Chicago, IL., and I blog about my experiences gardening in the city. In my spare time I'm a photography enthusiast and try to find ways to put my marketing degree to use. If you landed here chances are that you came here because of my garden blog. If you'd like, you can head over to the MrBrownThumb garden blog on Blogger. That link should open in a new window for you.
On 2/07/10 I'm scheduled to be on Mike Nowak's Chicago Gardening radio show to talk about social media and horticulture. Things I'm anticipating being brought up: the MrBrownThumb garden blog. My Chicago Garden blog on ChicagoNow. Chicago Gardeners blogroll and One Seed Chicago.
On 1/15/09 I had an article published in the January 2010 issue of Lawn & Garden Retailer magazine about garden bloggers and the benefit they are to independent garden centers.

On 1/01/10 I helped launch the One Seed Chicago project for the 2010 growing season. One Seed Chicago lets Chicagoans vote on three plants. The seeds of the winning plant, by popular vote, are then distributed for free to all the Chicagoans who voted in an effort to make Chicago a a greener city. Visit the link to vote until April 1, 2010 and afterwards for updates and news about the winning seed.
On 9/10/09 I was invited to attend the harvest festival of the vegetable garden at the Cook County Jail in Chicago. You can visit that link for pictures and video from the event.
On 7/02/09 I was interviewed by Outside the Loop RADIO about my Chicago Garden blog on ChicagoNow.com
On 5/26/09 Chicago Garden went live. Chicago Garden is a garden blog for the ChicagoNow.com network of blogs launched by the Chicago Tribune. The content on this new garden blog is different than on the MrbrownThumb blog and is focused on providing information about gardening in Chicago. Stop by, sign up and become part of the conversation.
On 4/10/09 I got a sneak preview of Dream in Color, the flower show on Macy's on State Street in Chicago. You can see my review of the flower show in the post Macy's Flower Show 2009.
On 03/07/09 I was part of a panel discussion on garden blogging at the Chicago Flower & Garden Show. If I met you during my visits to the show I may have blogged about you or your garden installation on my garden blog. Links to all the posts/pictures & videos on my garden blog related to the Chicago Flower & Garden Show can be found at Chicago Flower & Garden Show 2009.
This is just a stub page but you're more than welcomed to look around the pages here if you have some time to kill. I'll be updating these pages so pardon the mess while I try to do some spring cleaning.
