You know how once you click on ONE thing, you immediately start seeing dozens more in your social media feed? Well, my feed has been filling up with gardening T-shirts lately, so I started collecting them – and judging them. Wanna help?
T-Shirts I’d Wear
I like the positive attitude in all of these. Pride in being a gardener.
Nothing objectionable but I wouldn’t wear them
I agree that gardening is therapeutic but cardio it’s NOT. And gardening as one’s social life seems kinda sad.
Not loving gardening as the alternative to violence
Or T-shirts the remind me you-know-who. Even worse is that lame penis joke.
Not my style
I found a surprising number of anti-social sentiments on gardening tees, which may be protective. Garden hair I don’t get, though I do find “nacho average gardener” adorable. 
Really, really not my style! 
The “I Dig Gardening” shirt I object to solely on aesthetic grounds. (But good news – a quick search for that term yielded designs I like better like this one.
About the others in this group, the messages are crap and I bet some of you agree. But for the rest of you, DO go ahead and display whatever message you want on your own body – you won’t hear me talk about cancellation!
Getting Personal
Poor jokes aside, only one gardening message actually bothers me, and it’s the obnoxious, in-your-face warning that the wearer is judging you for your plant care (and feel free to substitute plant CHOICE here). If it’s happened to you – not silently but loud and clear from someone you’ve invited into your garden – you don’t think this message is funny.
But let’s all leave on a more positive note, shall we? Here’s someone I get to watch grow up to be a gardener, just like her big sister, and an independent thinker at that!
