P. Allen Smith's Garden2Blog Adventure: Part 2

Last month, I was lucky enough to be invited to P. Allen Smith's Garden2Blog Retreat. The Arkansas-based garden guru invited some of the top garden bloggers from the region to come tour his Garden Home Retreat, meet his sponsors, learn more about blogging and gardening and make new friends! Here are highlights from Day 2 of my adventure:



We arrived at Moss Mountain Retreat in Roland, Ark., super early.
It's the little things, like coordinating patio furniture with container gardens.

The sleeping porch was so tempting.

APPROVE of Allen's coffee table reading!

Such a beautiful home

The Grow Box demonstration was so interesting! They make gardening so easy.

Grow Box helps you space and plan your garden.

I won this shirt in the Bonnie Plants scavenger hunt!
  
Ah....
 
Container competition for Berry Family Nurseries. The bedpan container was my favorite!

My funky creation in a colander.
 
My group won the Laguna Ponds water container competition!

The guys with Laguna Ponds dared Allen to climb in.

I had an amazing time and learned so much, even got this badge to prove it!
