    FISKARS® Launches ‘Best Fall Harvest Garden’ Photo
    Contest on Neighborhoodcrossing.Com

     

    SAUK CITY, Wis., Sept. 21, 2007 - FISKARS, a leading developer
    of easy to use garden tools and accessories, today announced the ‘Best Fall
    Harvest Garden Photo’ contest hosted by NeighborhoodCrossing.com, a
    neighborhood-oriented social networking site, to reward its most loyal and
    enthusiastic gardeners and to inspire new gardeners of all ages.

     

    NeighborhoodCrossing.com is an online, nationwide collection
    of neighborhoods interested in connecting and establishing relationships within
    their community.  Its growing neighborhood of participants meet online to
    share information about interests and hobbies, including: blog entries, emails,
    classified advertisements, photos, anniversary dates, school and sporting
    updates, crime watches, community advocacy, as well as sharing community
    calendars, and scheduling social gatherings.

     

    “The ‘Best
    Fall Harvest Garden Photo contest’ on NeighborhoodCrossing.com will allow
    neighbors to share their hard work over the last few months said Brent McHenry,
    Communications Manager, FISKARS.  “We are excited to see what gardeners
    have created over the summer and hope we will see
    entries from a variety of gardens
    .”

     

    Beginners to expert gardeners are encouraged to participate in
    the ‘Best Fall Harvest Garden’ photo contest and can register for the contest

    At the end of each week, a panel of judges will select the

    winner per week will be named based on the photograph receiving the highest
    number of votes.
