Episode 50 - Digging and Delighted with Carol Michel

Need a reason to laugh? Might I suggest reading the work of an author by the name of Carol J. Michel? A fellow garden writer with a mid-western sense of humor that allows one to think all while giggling as you realize it simply makes sense. You can find other wonderful books by Carol on her website, https://caroljmichel.com/. As Carol promised, a copy of The Christmas Cottontail arrived in the mail and I cannot wait to read it to listeners everywhere! Stay tuned!!

In the meantime, practice saying Thank you to those who have sown seeds of joy as you continue on your garden journey. Encouraging reconnecting with the earth is a beautiful act of kindness. It is one of the best gifts to share with someone who is simply thinking about gardening as a hobby or even a profession.

Thank you for continuing to follow me - even after a hiatus as I wrote two books in 2021. Available for preorder now is The Urban Garden - 101 Ways to Grow Food and Beauty in the City. A collaboration between myself and Kathy Jentz where we share ideas and information to help gardeners enjoy their urban gardens.

My second book, Black Flora is a work of love and respect for flower farmers, florists, and floral designers who just happen to be Black. There is something about how we are familiar with this earth of urs and how #wegrowmorthancollards. More about this book soon.

I ask that you continue to follow me:
