As was reported in last month's newsletter, Kate Flint of Australia and Ian Holden of France organized KGI's first ever global meet-up of gardeners in Southwest France in September. We were small in number, but big in spirit and a bit bigger in the belly than when we started by the time the gastronomic weekend was over. Although KGI is not a jet-setting type of organization, people appreciated having a chance to get together face-to-face, visit some inspiring gardens and farms, and enjoy some delicious, locally-grown foods. For those who couldn't make this trip, we'll be organizing others in the future (2011?) to equally inspiring venues, so stay tuned. In the meanwhile, you can travel vicariously through these photos. Thanks, again, to Kate and Ian for hosting gathering #1!
