The other day I made a post with an update on some of my plants and steemian, @yogajill made a comment using these words- growing is life; using it as a tag, and I immediately wanted to use this tag! Thank you @yogajill for letting me share this tag!
#growingislife
I want to start using this tag and with the upcoming spring and summer growing season knocking on our doors, I am inviting all other gardeners and homesteaders to use it when you can. I'd love to see this tag go platform wide.
From sprouting your seedlings to updated all of us on how your plants are producing, wouldn't it be great to see how many of us can utilize this tag?
Even when you are cooking a new recipe using the harvest from your garden. Or how about later this year when you are canning and preserving. The possibilities are literally endless.
Fostering A Garden Moving To A Shack
I am continuing the fostering a gardener initiative and will be making a few tweaks to it. First, it will now be called The Garden Shack.
My first gardener, @borrowedearth posted about the garden shack earlier and I wanted to make sure everyone who follows me and has signed up to be an upcoming gardener knows I am striving to make this initiative a success.

Most of you know a few weeks ago I started a new program called Fostering A Gardener and after speaking with my first gardener @borrowedearth, I have decided to make more information and added ideas to the initiative.
In our chat, I had mentioned how I wanted to continue this mentoring further than just the week's worth of UPvoting and commenting. So as we were typing away on the keyboards, I mentioned I wanted to have this as a domino effect like situation.
EXAMPLE
So the first gardener was @borrowedearth so now that her week is over, she will support @warpedweaver and @crowbarmama as much as she can; then she will also continue the support with each fostered gardener who gets chosen. The same for @warpedweaver and @crowbarmama.
My main objective is to ultimately have EVERY fostered gardener supporting the others; which in return helps everyone involved. from commenting to UPvoting (When you can) and resteeming, by having all these gardeners supporting each other we can grow the group and continue building momentum; as well as each gardener's reputation and SP. It's a win-win for all!
See, between the Embracing A Steemian I do every week, the HOLLER OUT Tuesday posts that I have been doing every week since my first week on steemit and Fostering A Gardener; I am leading up to the Golden Ambassador delegation program I started in late December of last year.
Each and every person EVER previously mentioned in ANY of the above mentioned posts, events, initiatives or programs listed above are all candidates to become one of the nine Golden Ambassadors (GA's) I am planning to add throughout 2018. By the end of the year, I would LOVE to have an even dozen GA's.
