We Want You …

To write for Plant Talk!

We’ve been getting a lot of inquiries lately about writing for this blog, and we’re thrilled! So whether you’re a Garden Member, first-time visitor, volunteer, a farmer, someone from the community, or even Garden staff, if  you have an idea for a Plant Talk blog post you’d like to write, we would like to hear from you! You can leave a comment below, you can tweet us, you can post your idea on Facebook, you can submit it on Tumblr, or you can email us at: blog AT nybg DOT org.

But before you put pen to paper (or, more likely, fingertip to keyboard), pitch us your idea first to make sure we’re interested. After we have let you know that we’re interested please:

– Keep it sweet, simple, and topical. Try and keep your post to under 300 words.

– We might edit your text, so please be open to that.

– If you’ve got photos, we’d love to post them. Just make sure you have the right to give us the rights to do so.

– We would love to see your NYBG-inspired artwork.

So there’s our pitch. We can’t wait to see what you’ve got up your sleeve!
