Lisa is a treasure. ~Hope, Williamsburg, VA Lisa conducts kind of a “healing service” for brown thumbs. You can feel yourself getting excited about digging in the dirt and start to feel confident about having your own garden. I like that she doesn’t have a lot of rules—other than FEED the SOIL. Even in the dead of winter, Lisa can tell you something you can do to make your garden better in the spring. Hazel, Newport News, VA I have enjoyed Lisa's workshops and lectures immensely. Her knowledge and ability to convey information is superb and I look forward to my next venture with the Gardener's Workshop. (Did I mention that her cut flowers are stunning)? ~Gwen, Newport News, VA My husband Stephen and I attended your lecture on growing a cut flower garden. The ideas you presented gave us the confidence to grow a garden, to know where to place the garden in our yard, and the reassurance that we could contact you if we needed an answer to a question. We have been looking for a project we could do together, and this is it. Love our straw hats and gardening gloves we purchased from you, too. ~Cynthia, Newport News, VA. ...just wonderful, very good information! ~Mary Ellen, Smithfield, VA Loved this evenings program, I learned a lot. I will cut my flowers lower. ~Margo, Smithfield VA I loved the program! I was out cutting those babies down this morning! ~Marci, Williamsburg, VA Thank you so much for the wonderful presentation that you gave our club. I can't tell you how many accolades I have heard from club members. It was definitely one of the best programs we have had because members felt like "I can do this." ~Marlene, Program Chair , Williamsburg, VA I attended your presentation at the Fred Heutte Center in Norfolk on Wednesday evening and wanted to tell you that you are inspirational to the gardening population....Thank you for your efforts....the whole world benefits! ~Lynn, Norfolk, VA. You are an amazingly energetic and knowledgeable young woman with tons of ideas and solutions. ~Barbara, Newport News, VA Thank you for sharing ALL of your expertise with us. We are so lucky to have you in our “neighborhood”. ~Jamie, Newport News. Thank you, Lisa, for the wonderful presentation on Fall Planting. You are such a valuable resource to the local community! ~Gennifer, Newport News, VA. We enjoyed the valuable information provided in the program. We look forward to starting our "Fall Garden" in October -- as we become "seed gardeners!" Thanks -- Susie & Bill, Williamsburg, VA. Every time I hear you speak, I learn something new. It's like a "DUH" moment when something really sinks in. Keep cleaning out those cob webs in my brain, I really need it. ~Evelyn, Gloucester, VA Thanks to you and your team, we had a great evening. Learning how to prepare a bed for planting was the key we needed to invigorate our landscaping plans. ~Jenny and Carl, Newport News, VA.
