"If you think the only point of gardening is to bare your soul, you are sadly mistaken. Saturday, May 2, is World Naked Gardening Day, and I know you’ll want to participate! Yes, it’s true. Every person on the globe who loves both flowers and fig leaves will be tip-toeing through the tulips with nary a stitch on this Saturday. Why? Because planting a tuber in your birthday suit gives you an au naturel joie de vivre that can’t be matched any other way. As Barbara Pollard (pictured above) puts it, “When you’re out there with a gentle breeze on you, every last hair on your body feels it. You feel connected with the natural world in a way you just can’t in clothes.” thedailysouth.southernliving.com/2015/04/26/hooray-time-for-world-naked-gardening-day/

I may be wearing shorts and a T-shirt but that's as close as I'll probably get to naked in the garden!

That's hysterical! Love it. I've got a private area that is not exposed to neighbors. I'm game (weather permitting)

I've got a private area that is not exposed to neighbors. I have a few "private areas" too that I don't intend to expose. Ohhhh, you mean a private GARDENING area!

I would advise steering clear of any pruning devices that day...especially you guys... That is, of course, unless your bushes absolutely need trimming...

This reminds me of the story that if someone comes to the door and asks to do a tick check...... and it is a trick.
I don't have neighbors for miles, but I am passing....bare foot is close enough for me!

Uuummm, no thank you! I don't want to scare the semi drivers on our road...they might have an accident.
And I don't care to see any of my neighbors that way either!!! Widower across the road weighs about 300 lbs. (rough guess)!

Widower across the road weighs about 300 lbs. Well then you probably wouldn't see anything too "private" ha, ha.
