April is Here! Read our newest issue now!

no fooling! [GreenPrints]( April 1, 2024   [Hope is right around the corner!](  Dear Gardening Enthusiast, When I was growing up just south of Boston, we would always say “April showers bring May flowers.” That was New Englanders’ way of recognizing the often cool and rainy early Spring, but with hope for glorious days of sun and blooming flowers ahead. Because after brutal Winters, we all need hope. And what better place to find hope than in our gardens! By now, you’ve probably already thought about—and planned—your garden for the upcoming season. And in more southern climates, you’ve even done some planting outside. [Humor Collection]( I join you in eagerly awaiting the coming crops … and the hope of another Spring that arrives with the glory of new plants blossoming forth! And just like a new Spring, GreenPrints has blossomed anew with high hopes for the future—as I reported in last month’s issue. We’ve greatly expanded the content in monthly magazine issues, and there really is something for everyone … including heartwarming stories like we’ve been publishing for 34 years (The very first issue of GreenPrints appeared in Spring 1990.) plus a whole lot more.
