It's that time of year: Folks ask me what I've been up to, and my consistent response is: "Gardens, gardens, gardens." Whether building and planting raised beds for folks who purchased Future Garden Coupons or top-dressing and replanting with repeat customers, it's a wonderful whirlwind of business and plant growth. Here's a couple few pictures from the past week:

Friday morning I stopped by FBMC Benefits Management where-- this past spring-- I installed their company wellness garden.

Below are the flags plotting out their new beds going in Tuesday before our Wednesday Fall Planting Workshop.
During my visit, Glenda in Marketing, who coordinates their Wellness Program, showed me their snazzy new Wellness Program video that highlights their garden:
