Ooh looky here: the gays are gardening!

I loved writing this cover story for Just Out. It meant I got to visit with all kinds of gardeners, from pros to hobby growers to farmers to people just starting out. As a good friend once said when he was surrounded by fellow gardeners, "These are my people!" And so it is for me.

You can read the full story here, though the online version doesn't do it justice with all of the fantastic photos shared by many of the people I interviewed and some of my own as well. So go take a read, and then take a look at a handful of photos I took and shared for the story....



Indeed, there's a whole lotta gardening going on this year, and oh what fun it is.

It was such a good article, and Kathryn's column was good, too.

Great article! Thanks for sharing. My partner is the gardener--I'll have to pass it along to her...

Excellent article. I love that you got to interview Sam Adams. Also, love Sean Hogan's advice about being sure to grow something to impress the relatives in Iowa. I ***love*** doing that!

Wonderful article!! I know Mikal and Irena and you captured them really well. Great photos too. One of the better cover photos I've seen in a long time.
