Love Your Veggies

In January I found a contest to win money for a community garden being discussed on a forum site. I looked into it further and felt drawn to apply for it. I sent in my application and was notified on February 2nd that I was one of the ten winners!!
Here are the details,
In partnership with Chef Art Smith, the makers of Hidden Valley® Salad Dressings want to identify, help and reward moms who are true vegetable advocates through the Love Your Veggies™ "Search for Veggie Champions Contest." For 10 lucky moms, Chef Smith and other experts will lead a two-day retreat April 28 and April 29 aimed at learning and sharing tips and tools on planting, harvesting, cooking and eating vegetables with children. These moms will also receive $5,000 to start or maintain a community vegetable garden in their hometown."

I think I was in shock until I actually arrived in Chicago because I didn't think I would really win! And so, the garden begins....
