Ian, the name actually does have a bit of significance. It refers to an Edger...you know...the tool you use to make a nice clean edge between your garden and your lawn. The Garden in this case would be the state and the grass would be the church. We all thought the name was terrible at first, and the reference corny, but it grew on us. It was used as a project name and just progressed to being the final name because it was catchy. As for our affiliation with CFI, the three co-founders of the site (Me, Katie, Roy) all worked for CFI this summer and used our CFI resources to pick some great bloggers for the site. As of now our affiliation with CFI is their support and their staff's oversight. A closer affiliation is in the works and should be reached relatively soon. Thx for the awesome post Hemant.

I'm one of the writers and webs staff at Edger and appreciate the positive feedback! We'll keep it up if you keep reading!

The students involved in the Edger are all CFI On-Campus student leaders, and that was their original connection.
