Audience Reviews
“Great garden talk. Knowledgeable, passionate speaker Kim has inspired me to garden more 'thoughtfully' by paying attention To the whole garden ecosystem from the ground up.”
“I have heard Kim speak twice - and each time she was incredibly knowledgeable and, frankly, inspirational! Her presentation for [the group] provided a very comprehensive overview of the native trees, shrubs, and perennials to plant to attract birds - I immediately started taking her advice and now have many birds that frequent my garden!”
“Excellence! I found Kim on the Great Garden Speakers website when I needed to book speakers for my garden club. She is so friendly, knowledgeable and professional. She gave the best talk we ever had, inspiring many of us to try to plant more Eco-beneficially.”
