THIS WEEK"S THEME: "IN THE GARDEN"
------------------------
Share with us a photo of your favorite Flower or Vegetable that you have grown.
A photo of your garden/veggie plot...or pot garden.
Or if you do not have a garden..share a photo of your favorite house plant.
If you care to share your favorite vegetable recipe or a gardening tip..that would be great.
Maybe you have a cool garden item that you have found?..or a garden craft that you have created that makes your garden even more special to you..Share it with us.
Anything that says "garden/gardening" is fair game for this weeks theme.
(even a photo of your "dirty manicure" will work)
We love to see photos of what you are growing/cultivating in your little corner of the world.
----------------------------------------------
*** ATTENTION***
To participate in the fun there are a few wee things we ask you to do:-----------------------
This blog-a-thon will run for 6 weeks.
It will begin on Monday 4/7/08 and run until 5/7/08!

What we are going to do is this.

Everyone that participates in the blog-a-thon will put a link in their posts for that weeks blog-a-thon theme entry to Mary Jane's Farm.(http://www.maryjanesfarm.org/)
(A simple wording like this at the end of your posts will work: "To share with other farm girls and to learn about the Farm Girl way of life visit: http://www.maryjanesfarm.org/ ")
Each week of the "blog-a-thon" will have a Farmgirl theme for the week.

To participate:

You will need to leave a comment here(on each week's theme announcement page)to let me know that you have posted an entry pertaining to the weeks theme...and that you have posted a link back to Mary Jane's Farm on your blog.

***at the end of the blog-a-thon I will be drawing a name for a surprise package"***
