“Carol was an excellent speaker! She was entertaining and informative. Her gardening happiness self-assessment is a great tool to remind us that gardening is supposed to be fun. Hail to Queen of the Hoes!”

Carol J. Michel is the Erma Bombeck of the Gardening world!

“What better way to enjoy learning the ups and downs of gardening than with a good dose of humor. Great book for anyone who’s tried their hand at growing. And if you don’t garden, this book might just inspire you to see what garden adventures could lay ahead for you. Keep it on the side table to read for a chuckle after a long hard day. Carol, thank you for making gardening fun again!”

Barbara W.

“Carol has an incredible knowledge about growing veggies but her gift of creative humor added a lot of fun to what could be a dull topic.

With Carol, everything is interesting. She definitely knows how to hold her audience…even the ones like me who aren’t terribly interested in veggies!! She is EXCELLENT!!! SUPER GREAT!!!”
