About Me

WELCOME. As Executive Director of the Sustainable Gardening Institute and SGI's Sustainable Gardening Library, I'm focused on helping you change the way you garden or farm, because our survival depends on it.

I enjoyed visiting other people's gardens as a field editor and location scout for Better Homes and Gardens and Country Gardens magazines; blogging on Garden Views and The Christian Science Monitor; speaking at garden clubs, libraries, environmental organizations, national and international conferences, and working in my own garden.

I served on my local environmental commission for nine years, on the planning board, and on the open space committee. I chaired the Garden Writers Association (now GardenComm International) Sustainability Committee and am a recipient of the prestigious Jefferson Presidential Award for nearly a decade of service in environmental advocacy. I’m honored to have also received Garden Comm's Green Medal for Sustainability, the New Jersey SBDC’s Small Business Success Award and the NJAWBO Publications Award.

Come with me now on a journey that explores the world through our mutual love of plants. Build a holistic bond with your land and Planet Earth, while creating a stress-free sanctuary for your soul.
