grow your urban garden

My favorite alter-ego, Gayla Trail, a successful author and photographer as well as celebrated gardener, will be in New York City this coming Saturday, May 21st to explain to us concrete-jungle dwellers how to add a dash of green to our environs. If I lived there, I would go to her Urban Gardening Demos to learn how to grow a garden on my defunct fire escape, but alas, I'll just have to settle for her fantastic book.
