Just got word from Kate Blumm at the Brooklyn Botanical Gardens that there are a couple of
exciting things going on over there.

Seems that BBG is teaming up with Brooklyn Industries on a spring project called Think Spring.

Brooklyn Industries shot their spring catalog in the Steinhardt Conservatory (previewed here). BBG is also cohosting an event in every BI store in the city on Thursday Feb 26th 19th (THIS THURSDAY) with giveaways and refreshments. And there's more: the two Brooklyn biggies are co-designing a special toddler tee.

In other BBG news, BBG's molecular systematist, Dr. Susan Pell, is blogging her incredible research trip to Paupua, New Guinea on their website. (http://bbg.org/blogs/expedition/).
