Digging receives two Garden Writers Association awards!
I’m really excited to announce that I’ve received two Silver Awards of Achievement for garden writing in the 2015 Garden Writers Association Media Awards Program (GWA is now GardenComm).
One award is for the category Blog-Writing. The judges, in making their decision, specifically considered three of my blog posts at Digging:
Up on the High Line, a skyline promenade
Gardens are for people, so put people in your garden photos
Color-drenched walls and desert beauty in Steve Martino-designed Palo Christi Garden
The other award is for the category E-Zine Article, and the recognized piece is “Placing Art in the Garden,” which I wrote for Garden Design magazine’s website.
A Silver Award is wonderful in itself, but it also places my work in a competitive judging process for GWA Gold Awards, the winners of which will be announced at the annual symposium this fall. Fingers crossed!

Congratulations for two well-deserved awards. Yours is one of the few gardening blogs I still read since I seldom get to garden, because you have a very engaging writing style, beautiful pictures and cover lots of interesting topics.
Thank you so much, Marilyn. I’m glad you’re still here! —Pam
