Katie is available to speak at garden industry conferences, as a podcast guest, to present webinars, and lunch-and-learns!
Kate [the host] had such a wonderful time with you. We couldn’t say enough at our morning editorial meeting about how amazing you were on-air. Our entire team appreciated you letting your fun personality shine. We felt that truly created a comfort for our listeners and hopefully will then try this style of growing.

Katie gave a dynamic, engaging, and incredibly helpful presentation at the Digging In winter 2022 webinar I attended ! I took the practical steps she presented and immediately implemented her ideas and advice to improve the newsletter I send to our customers. I loved her authentic personality and her openness to share her knowledge in both the presentation and the Q&A.
