DIG IT!

The Lisa Porter Collection is honored to be included at DIG IT! Magazine.
DIG IT! Magazine
A digital publication where avid gardeners delight in sharing their roots & gaining knowledge.
A proud member of
The magazine, both informative & resourceful, appeals to the master & back porch gardener. I like that!
DIG IT! Magazine
I first discovered DIG IT! in 2012 when I came across a beautiful story ~ Her Favorite Things ~ authored by Mary Jasch. I was moved not only by the topic but also by the author's poetic way with words. I wrote about it here in Poetry & Gardening.

Mary Jasch is a freelance writer, photographer, gardener, and also the publisher of DIG IT! Magazine. I love how she invites her readers to put on their muck boots, garden hats & gloves and enter the gardens of interesting architects, artists, filmmakers, philanthropists, and foodies who just so happen to also be incredible gardeners!
Here are three of my favorites ~

Frances Palmer Dahlia Garden - photo by Mary Jasch The flowers, mostly dahlias, are tools for inspiration and for marketing her handmade dishware and vases and American-made, factory-made Pearl Collection TM tableware. I love the comments of Frances’ daughter.

There is a place in Pottersville, New Jersey, that some say are the second Versailles. Resurrected from the ruins of an abandoned farm, this house and garden surely inspire.

Pamela Page, gardener, gourmet, filmmaker, shapes her garden with symmetry, dresses it in colorful vegetables, and bejewels it with flowers.
 
Look for The Lisa Porter Collection in the Directory of Garden Websites at DIG IT! 
Thank you so much, Mary.
I’m thrilled to be in such good company and I’ve got my muck boots on!

Life is so full of change.

Like when the sky opens up and shows you everything at once.

Strands of this day are wound with pink threads of the evening.
