We are well and truly into the new season north and south - how's the equator going? We're always interested in this time of year in your gardens and we are definitely excited about the new challenge! A gentle reminder to use the #gardenjournal tag as your first tag if you're entering the challenge - otherwise we won't include you in the wrap up. Things get very busy at peak gardening times so we need some way to organise the wrap up so we really appreciate you following the rules to help us out.

Thanks everyone for continuing to produce great content to inspire and motivate us. We love this community - it's your participation above all that keeps it great!

The Challenge

Write a #gardenjournal post! This could be:

• Detailing what's happening in your garden, from successes to failures
• Writing about a friend's garden
• Writing about a visit to a botanical garden or nursery
• Writing about your favourite plant
• Garden produce recipes
• Prepping posts about growing and preserving your own food

The Guidelines

• Please do NOT share ten photos of the SAME plant! Be selective.
• Use the tag #gardenjournal as your first tag
• 300 words minimum - this is not a photo challenge.
• Comment on other posts in the community
• Use #gardenjournal as your first tag and post in the community.
• No AI generated posts please - you will be immediately muted
• If your post is prepping related, use the tag #GARDENPREPPER as well.
• Drop the LINK to your post UNDER THIS POST.

Your enthusiasm shines through the content you create and your engagement with community and will be rewarded with upvotes and reblogs, and hopefully lots of engagement from fellow gardeners and Hive folk!

Let's see fab formatting, beautiful photos, and thoughtful post - the kind of post that makes us want to go and tidy our garden!

Tagging #gardenjournal members as a reminder! Please let me know if you'd like to be added or removed from this list.
