The Gotham Gardener Newsletter Archive
The Gotham Gardener is a newsletter highlighting plants, soil, and products for gardeners in the New York City region.  Our mission is to tackle the challenges faced by New York City gardeners and give them the information they need to make good gardening decisions.  We also connect with people's passion for gardening by offering inspiring photographs and little known anecdotes about the gardening plants and products we love.
