What a lovely surprise! Just received my most recent issue of Northern Gardener, my favorite gardening publication from the MN State Hort Society. What to my delight did I discover? A lovely piece about me, as I recently completed my two terms as a member of the board. Gave me a warm fuzzy and filled my heart! @mnhort is the best! https://www.instagram.com/p/CLnGZ7DARR9/?igshid=bk79ad30ff4e

Joel Karsten's insight:

This is a great tour of a Straw Bale Garden, with two awesome gardeners who know their stuff. I laughed out loud when I saw all of the political signs he used to help build his garden beds. I loved this video. He isn't trying to impress anyone, but the garden is really spectacular. Take a minute and check it out!  He is a hoot.

What Straw Bale Gardening Can Teach You About Sales Productivity

Part 1 of the new video series on CONNECT2Sell, Growing Your Business.

Joel Karsten's insight:

I must confess that this is the first time I've ever seen someone use their Straw Bale Garden as a metaphor to sell their own unrelated business consulting services involving improvement of productivity.  Debra does a great job, and this video was rather interesting take on her own experiences with the STRAW BALE GARDENS® method.

HipSilver

Garden Talk on NPR!

Joel Karsten's insight:

Hip silver? Never heard of them until now. Here is what their website says, "We are the “hip” generation that has turned silver. We are the “HipSilvers”. Only in the last three years, when the “boomers” began turning 60, did anyone pay attention to the third phase of our existence. In fact, the media doesn’t even know what to call us….

  If you are a "HipSilver" this might be your cup of tea! Regardless, they are promoting Straw Bale Gardening so I'm a fan, even though I'm not exactly "Hip" I am getting to be mostly Silver.
