Gardening should be FUN and that's what I'm all about; learn while you laugh, and never take yourself (or your garden) too seriously
You’ll learn even more than you expect

Karen spoke to our garden club in the midst of our February blizzard. Fortunately, we were planning a webinar, anyway, because... you know (2021). Karen had worked with us in advance to get set up, answered numerous technical questions and and joined us for a practice session the week prior. Her presentation went off without a hitch (as far as viewers knew), and our members have been giving it rave reviews ever since. Karen is that perfect combination of knowledgeable, professional, and approachable, and we all learned something useful that day. What many members didn’t know was that power on half the island went off briefly, the 3 other co-hosts were bumped off and had to re-boot their routers and sign back on. Karen was able to carry on without a hitch, giving us many useful ideas and renewed optimism for the coexistence of our gardens and our island deer. (Her books are great, too— I recommend them all.)

Karen delighted San Juan County, Washington garden club members on a snow bound, on and off power outage morning. Relevant, timely and charmingly presented information about DEER RESISTENT DEGIGN.
mix it up Jan 2021 conference

This speaker previously unknown to me, was fabulous. She was a last minute emergency replacement at the 2021 mix it up conference by Zoom. Over 300 delegates viewed the conference from far away as France. Karen was by far the most engaging, lively and funny speaker that I have viewed on the Zoom platform. I felt a personal connection to her as her virtual persona was very welcoming and attractive. She is the best and oh, did I say...she is an expert at planter designs. I learned many valuable ideas and tips.

Karen joined our conference presentation team as an emergency replacement one week before our event. She not only filled in, she 'knocked it out of the park'! We had over 300 attendees on a Zoom Webinar...Karen's presentation was professional, interesting and inspirational. Thanks so much for your enthusiastic support and top notch presentation.
Foliage & Focal Points

Karen is one of my all time favorite speakers, and in normal times I always plan to attend her programs at the Washington State Flower & Garden Show. Her presentation to the Mukilteo Way Garden Club this week was a perfect combination of knowledge and concepts well illustrated with beautiful images. Very engaging and inspirational!
