What People are Saying
“Joan, you are a true teacher who gives generously and shares with an enthusiastic approach. It’s as if you pollinate your audience with your thoughtful presentation. May we all bear fruit.”
Linda Askey, Former Garden Editor, Southern Living Magazine 2015
“Joan delivered a digestible presentation in a creative and interactive way. Through visual aids and field experience, she is knowledgeable about the pollinators around us and the importance of maintaining their livelihood.”
Jeremy Zimmett
Active Older Adult Coordinator at the SBYMCA 2015
“Joan, I want to tell you how much I enjoyed your talk on butterflies and native bees. I am a teacher and your talk helped me to understand how I, as a homeowner, can create an actual habitat. When you said bumble bees and other native bees are important I had to smile. Before your talk I only heard about honey bees.
Thank you for doing the talk. It is something we need to teach our children.
Sherry at Coastal Savannah Botanical Garden, GA 2015
“What a treat to attend Joan’s pollinator presentation! Her enthusiasm for bees and butterflies was both educational and contagious. And her practical advice inspired me to apply some of her ideas in my own backyard. Thank you, Joan!”
Barb Nagle Statler, Master Gardener 2015
