Here is an excerpt from the article in the "My Garden Story" section, page 31:

Gardening in Fairlington is a rather “public” activity, especially when one’s garden is adjacent to a busy street — complete with Metro buses and rush hour traffic — and a busy sidewalk of pedestrians, dog walkers, and strollers!

Washington Gardener is on sale at all of the area Borders, B. Dalton, and Barnes & Noble bookstores. If you don’t see it in the garden magazine section, ask for the manager to check on the back room stock for you. The magazine is also on sale at several independent stores including:

Tom writes his own gardening column for the Fairlington web site - "Gardening by the Yard." He also manages the web site's "Gardening Advisor" page. Check them out.
