FAQs
- What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
My fees are based upon type and length of talk or consult. I tailor each presentation to the audience. I also consult hourly, should you need expert witness testimony for townships, gardeners/commercial properties who want to convert existing properties or need help with plant selection/design.
- What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
I listen to their needs and tailor each project based upon their feedback. Whether a beginner needing full support, or a seasoned gardener needing advice, I can help both have a successful outcome. If we are arranging a speaking event or garden tour, I try to understand the group dynamics and tailor a program that will be actionable regardless of the participants gardening knowledge.
- What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I am a certified master gardener, Penn State Extension - Master Gardeners of Cumberland County. I have been in clinical research for over 20 years, and combine actionable advice with data to maximize yield and minimize effort, using sustainable techniques and practical advice from a lifetime of gardening.
