RAIN BIRD/’ENTER THE MUSEUM’/IMAGE COURTESY: RAIN BIRD
way yeah !! - enter the RAIN BIRD MUSEUM - this is pretty much - the coolest (virtual) museum trip I’ve ever taken …. enter: the RAIN BIRD MUSEUM !!
. . . is that animated virtual hostess - the best & coolest ever, or what !!!
I think its the combination of graphics that look so 50’s - with content that’s so now !! - i.e. - “the intelligent use of water !!” . . and, all this from a scientific/technical company that goes way back to the 30’s !! . . that has me so flipped out. this site is wild !!!
. . . just take that RAIN BIRD museum tour. & then check out the rest of the site. nuff said. this site - should keep you busy for the weekend !!
. . . and don’t !! miss the link on the website’s lefthand index/under ‘COMMUNITY’ - to the RAIN BIRD 2008 TOURNAMENT Of ROSES FLOAT - titled ‘PRESERVATION CELEBRATION’ - which was honored with the Sweepstakes Trophy for the ‘Most Beautiful Float’ in the 2008 parade !!
here’s the link !! - RAIN BIRD FLOAT !!
. . . no wonder this company is over 7 decades old & still !! going strong !!

RAIN BIRD - “the world’s leader in irrigation” - & their DAVE SHANE - provided the IRRIGATION SYSTEM for PUBLIC FARM ONE.
. . . after all, after lightweight rooftop soil - what could be more important !!
(bye the way - I don’t notice a credit to bug and disease control on the PUBLIC FARM ONE website !! - yo, if you garden in NYC - you get the thought wave !! if they have bees & butterflies - they’re going to get - the pests, too. just ask any New Yorker with a terrace garden - its hard to believe - but they still find their way - right up there - 20TH floor and counting !!)
