Humor? Yes, of course. Virtual? Yes, absolutely.
Depending on where you are and where I am, virtual may be a great option to have me speak to your group without having to sell some of those precious seeds you have for a rare-in-cultivation plant to cover my travel costs.
Lighten the mood. Sit back, relax, and let me show you how laughter helps every garden grow better, and it's good for gardeners too!
Gardener, author, owner of the world's largest hoe collection, keeper of the secrets to happiness in your garden, and collector of old gardening books, Carol mixes horticulture and humor in her presentations on a wide variety of gardening topics.
She is also the author of five books including four books of humorous essays, Potted and Pruned: Living a Gardening Life, Homegrown and Handpicked: A Year in a Gardening Life, Seeded and Sodded: Thoughts from a Gardening Life, and Creatures and Critters: Who's in Your Garden, plus one children's book, The Christmas Cottontail: A Tale for Gardeners of All Ages.
