I resisted Twitter for a long time. Whenever anyone mentioned it, I let out a huff and said it was a completely banal forum for people to tell the world that they just brushed their teeth. I realize now that I was acting out of ignorance. Yes, there is a lot of banality on Twitter. But if you choose who to follow wisely, you’ll learn a lot of interesting information and have a good time doing it.
Here are some great garden tweeple to follow (in no particular order):
- Nest in Style
- Indigo Gardens
- Green Lasagna
- Anarchy Garden
- Invisible Bees
- BHG Garden Ed
- Mother Earth News
- Sunshine Garden
- Eric Garden Fork
- Red White and Grew
Who do you think is a “must follow” on Twitter?

Ah, Fern. Thank you for including me in such great company!
Like you, I was unsure about Twitter. Especially as a gardener writing for other gardeners — why find one more excuse to sit at the computer when we can be out digging in the dirt? …And I kid you and the LotB Lot not, somedays I still wonder if it really is {crass alert} just a big circle jerk. But, like you say, if we’re mindful of whom we follow and why, it can be a great way to connect with new people, make new friends and gain exposure to some cool, valuable insights!
No problem invisiblebees! I tried to pick people who don’t just pimp their own blog, but actually make good use of the 140 character format to pass along useful info. You definitely do that!
Hey, how’d I miss this? So lovely. Thank you.
