If you blog about gardening, or what the heck, even if you just garden sans blog (but have an interest), and you happen to be in the Austin (Texas) area on April 5th, 2008, you might be interested in this social gathering. We were invited, but that’s a long trip for us, and at a time of the year we’re very busy — too busy for events. But it sounds like fun so we figured we’d pass it along just in case some of our readers would like to attend. Here’s an excerpt from the official Garden Bloggers invitation:
Calling all garden bloggers! It’s the Garden Bloggers Spring Fling, Saturday, April 5, 2008.
The Austin garden bloggers invite you to join us for a day of socializing with other garden bloggers, tours of public and private gardens, a talk by Soul of the Garden’s Tom Spencer, and informal discussions about blogging at a happy hour in the garden of Digging’s Pam Penick. This is your chance to meet your favorite garden bloggers in person, put faces to familiar names, and get to know new bloggers!
If you want more details, they offer full disclosure about the itinerary, accommodations, transportation, expenses, and more on the official site. Check it out if that’s your thing. Sounds like a good time to be had for all.

Thanks for the nice words and the publicity! We Austin bloggers are delighted to welcome garden bloggers of all stripes to the Spring Fling on April 5th. Please RSVP through our site.
Due to space restrictions at our scheduled talks and guided tours, we regret that we must limit attendance to those who keep a garden blog. We thank readers for their understanding.
Happy digging!
