Creepy Crawlers and Some Fun Stories on #gardenchat

Last night we had a creepy crawly fun hour on #gardenchat sharing all about bugs!  This was our way of celebrating National Pollinator Week. At the end of the chat we asked some of the blogger friends to please share their favorite bugs.  You can find their comments on : Monday is BUG NITE Post.

If you missed the #gardenchat last night you can read the transcript located at #gardenchat Transcript Page.

Thank you to everyone who participated!

Season of Giving Event Kick-Off

As our gardens gave to us this past year it is time for us to use that as an example during the Holiday Season.   It is truly the season for giving and #gardenchat wants to make that possible for you.

 Join us on #gardenchat  this Sunday November 27,2011 as we connect and share with garden product providers who have made it possible for us to continue growing better gardens.    During the 2 hour special event we encourage you to join in the conversation on twitter as well as our blog by sharing your favorite garden products.  During this 2 hour event of networking with the garden product providers many participants will be eligible for the Stocking Stuffer Giveaway featured below .    Details on how to enter are at the bottom of the prize list on this blog.

Join in the conversation on Twitter!

What is #gardenchat

#gardenchat is a Twitter based chat forum where garden enthusiasts from all walks of life connect and interact sharing ideas about their experience growing. 

How #gardenchat Connects On Monday Scheduled Events

In the week leading up to the #gardenchat event a topic is networked on the social networks Facebook, Twitter, Google+, and the official #gardenchat blog. During the scheduled #gardenchat Monday a topic is picked and a guest host specializing in that topic is usually present to help with any questions and add to the conversation. On the Monday a guest host is present, questions are submitted that are answered during the event. Everyone attending the chat is encouraged to share their experience and answer questions as well.  A transcript is saved after each Monday event that can be downloaded from the transcript page. Documentation of the topic is a great way to keep the garden experience alive and available for anyone to review at their convenience.

If you are interested in sharing as a guest host on #gardenchat please submit a topic* you would like us to network to Bren of BGgarden.com .
