Erik Lorden At Passports Displays His Downtown Herb Garden Video
Erik Lorden steps up big after disappointing as a no-show in the Downtown Gloucester Merchants Flower Box Competition.
He knew he had to either come strong with some outside the box creativity or face being ridiculed by me for not representing.
The boy brought his A Game and creativity in his Sustainable Cape Ann best with flower boxes containing herbs that he uses in some of his tastiest dishes.

Since the Downtown Merchants Flower Box Competition, there have been at least 8 storefronts that now have Flower boxes that didn’t have them before the competition. I love it!

The Dress Code- Downtown Tomato Garden- Thinking Green!
There has been a trend that I’ve noticed since we did the Downtown Flower Box Competition.
That trend is of downtown stores and restaurants planting veggies and herbs.
Eric at Passports put up flower boxes after I gave himcrap about not having an entry in the Flower Box Competition and he decided to plant all kinds of herbs and hot peppers to use in the restaurant. That’s pretty damn cool!
The Topside Grill also has herbs that they plant in their Flower Boxes.
Now I found out Babara at The Dress Code has planted tomatos! I’ll be keeping track of the progress of the Dress Code Tomatos here on the blog. Here are the first pics-
