Country Gardens Fall 2009


The Fall 2009 issue of Country Gardens is on the newsstands on August 4th. My "Slow Lane" column is all about taking note of the seasonal changes of the garden. The take away is that you should be out there ohhing and ahhing over your garden every day. Because, tick-tock, the season is slipping by. Which is why I've been so lax in posting to my blog. ;-)

If you want to become a fan of Country Gardens magazine on Facebook, here's the link:

My new column!

Good news! I’ll be writing a column for Country Gardens magazine (starting with the Summer issue—and it’s still even called Slow Lane just like at Country Home). Check it out on the newsstand (it will be on the newsstand on May 18th). Or, better yet, subscribe! I have an article in the Spring issue (on the newsstands right now) about the peonies that grow in our garden (you’ll find it on page 49—you can also see our border of old-fashioned peonies with our outhouse-turned-potting shed in the opening spread).

I have an article in March 2009 issue of Better Homes and Gardens. I got the great opportunity to interview Ina Garten (The Barefoot Contessa) about her garden. Very fun!

In the Spring issue of Creative Home magazine, I wrote an essay about gardening (or attempting to) with my kids when they were small. And I wrote an article about growing roses for Family Circle (March 2009).

I am excited about this too: I'm in the process of putting together of book of essays, so if you want me to send you a note when it's published, send me an email with your email or postal address. I’m at karenweirjimerson@gmail.com. I'll post the announcement here on my blog too.

My new digs


It was sad news indeed, but the cancellation of Country Home magazine (with my column as well as my blog on the countryhome.com site) means that I've moved to new publishing locations. I'll be blogging here about country life, gardening and pets. And I'll be still be writing for a variety of home and gardening magazines. I'll post current articles (and their locations) if you're interested in taking a look. Thanks Karen
