This month, we're challenging you to show us how you've gone green in your garden. Did you build or buy a rain barrel? Have you planted some plants that are native, drought-tolerant, or bumblebee-friendly? Are you planning on using creative recycled containers in your garden this year?

If so, show off your photos in the gallery and help to inspire other gardeners to be a little more green this year. The best entry will win a CompostBinz from Compostore.com.

Complete Rules and Contest Description

I just spent 2 hours trying to figure it out and now it won't let me load the pics!
Is there a number at Taunton Press that I can call to have someone walk me thru it???
