This weekend it was announced that the featured topic for June is Teaching Plants. We’ll take a look at how educators from various disciplines teach the public about plants.
There is probably no better way to kick this month off than with the collection of presentations being featured this week on TED: Ideas Worth Sharing. Guerrilla gardening, biodiversity, house plants, growing clothes, food choice, and the ecosystem of tree canopies are all featured.
View this wonderful collection now at Plantastic!.

Absolutely loved the TED talk on gardening on the streets of South Los Angeles.
The gentleman who gave the talk has hopefully inspired more than the folks in Los Angeles but other neighbourhoods as well. Bless him, for having the courage and fortitude to change attitudes and lifestyles! Congratulations on your endeavours and happy growing!
