“One thing I’ve learned is that “plant people” are the same no matter where you go. I find that whenever I speak at a conference, I learn so much from those in attendance, and I enjoy trading information and tips with the people who join my sessions”.

Kathy is certainly an educator and informative speaker on all the topics she presented at the conferences. Her presentations were inspiring, fun, educational and delegates came away with notes, tips and information that they could apply immediately to their business.

Book Kathy FediwIf you haven’t already purchased Kathy’s books The Manual of Interior Plantscaping” published by Timber Press; “Green Plant Care Tips for Techs then I would suggest you do so!
