12th Annual Naked Gardening Day May 7th 2016

So how did I miss this the first 11 years?

Kind of a surprise some of the things you learn on Facebook, but this one sounded interesting enough to blog about tonight so here we are.

It has been kind of cold up here in Wisconsin this year and I have not really thought much about gardening yet.

Maybe by June first I will feel confident enough to stick some plants out there, and perhaps I will get some tilling done on the 7th, I do have a few months’ worth of coffee grounds and other compost that I should mix in pretty soon.

I don’t think that I will be participating in the naked gardening event this year, nobody wants to see that, but I will keep an eye open for others in my town that day.

Have fun and don’t get a sunburn my friends!

That is probably a thing for SoCal since it is warm and sunny in here. 

How about just simple old style gardening, would it work too?:)

 Good morning Bob Crane . I never heard of naked gardening day. Is that a day when we all run around in the buff and work in the yard?

Good morning Bob. Never heard the term before, what is the purpose other than working in your garden in the nude?

I read about this also on Facebook.....I'm sure many that shouldn't will participate.

Certainly an interesting concept, Bob... not an activity for me nude or otherwise. I simply don't garden. I am, however, very good at supervising my landscaper.

It will be nice and hot here so anyone celebrating that day should put on plenty of sunscreen!

So you are a lookie-loo Bob!  Nice to know.  Now you have another reason why I keep my camera lens taped on my lap top

I am all for it, but no one can see my garden from the road so no fun in it for me.

I added three plants last week. The deer has eaten one and hopefully will not find the others. If I did have a garden, it wouldn't last long because of the deer. This is one event, Ive never heard of Bob.

Hey Bob-I just read about this the other day as well. Though I do enjoy naked pool time I will pass on the naked gardening as there is too much at stake.

Never heard of this and don't want to give more target area for the bugs to attack. My plants are all in. I have room for 2 more and can't decide if they will be squash or cucumbers.

I am not to fond of the clean up after a session in the garden. I always wear long pants, but I do have a outside shower that works for getting dirty. Clothes are optional.

Steven Nickens , I am sure that clothing is much more optional in your part of the world than up here in the frozen north.
