The next time you’re in the checkout line at the grocery store or browsing magazines at your favorite newsstand, look up Outdoor life magazine and my article “Jump Right In,” featuring Lorie and Michael Kinler’s relaxing Fort Worth garden.
Outdoor life is a special publication of the author Better Homes and Gardensand they picked up and expanded on my article about the Kinler Garden that originally appeared BHG last summer. I’m so happy Lori and Michael are seeing their garden getting more and more press! Their garden will also be featured in my upcoming book on Texas gardens.
Outdoor life is available starting today on newsstands and in retailers nationwide, although it sometimes takes a day or two for magazines to hit shelves. I understand that copies will also be available on magazines.com (search for “Outdoor Living”). Happy reading!
