Congratulations to the Top 25 gardens in the Plant theme of the Grow it Forward contest! Thank you to all participants who have come together in the effort to Grow it Forward for future generations.

The Great Sunflower Project enlists citizens like you to map bee populations across the country. Help this important project continue by purchasing a set of beautiful, bee-adorned notecards and send them to your friends and family.

You're invited to observe lilacs this spring...for reasons you might not expect.

As a continuing part of YourGardenShow's Citizen Science initiatives and support for the Great Sunflower Project, we will bring you a series of posts with breaking news about our pollinators, the bees.

In this Citizen Science Update, Emmet Brady reveals an ironic twist - the poisoning of the bees could come as a result of farmers and beekeepers trying to feed them.

See contest prizes below for the "Seed" contest time period, thanks to our Grow it Forward sponsors: Baker Creek Heirloom Seed Company, National Gardening Association, Timber Press, Storey Publishing, Green Deals, and YourGardenShow.com. Lots of handy items to complement a gardener's lifestyle!

Spring is indeed a time of renewal and fresh starts and, for the founders' family, it also heralds exciting possibilities. This year the founders' garden will get a new name, new farm hands and new life as they endeavor to grow out their small farm in Umbria, Italy, with over 100 plant varieties.

Even as the Northern Hemisphere ushers in the first day of spring today, March 20th, 2012, many across the United States have seemingly bypassed winter altogether.

While Grow it Forward is an heirloom seed contest complete with some great prizes, the message and effort are so much more.

Wondering what to do now that the bees are tucked away in their hives? Your Garden Show’s new Bees & Beekeeping Forum is just around the corner and we want your input! Fill out this quick online survey to let us know what you think.

Bee-a-thon 2011 is a free, online "town hall" event broadcast live to a worldwide audience on July 16th to shed light on the plight of our bees.

The YourGardenShow team is in Washington D.C. today, exhibiting at the Pollinator Week summit on the National Mall. It may be nearing 100 degrees, but we're happy to be here meeting so many passionate gardeners, beekeepers and organizations, and talking to everyone about the Great Bee Count, a Citizen Science effort to count bees across North America.  We've been handing out sunflower seed packets, courtesy of YGS partner Baker Creek Heirloom Seeds, to get people started and spreading the word about Bee-a-thon 2011, a live, online "town hall" event with experts discussing the challenge we face with dwindling bee populations and inspiring action.
