The Garden of Words with Katie Elzer-Peters

Cultivating Place: Conversations on Natural History and the Human Impulse to Garden

This week, Cultivating Place’s guest host, Ben Futa, is in conversation with Katie Elzer-Peters, owner and founder of The Garden of Words, a digital marketing agency for the green industry. Katie is a lifelong plant lover, storyteller, communicator, and artist. An early love for museums and public gardens led Katie to discover what has today become her mission: empowering more plant-based businesses to thrive so that more people can discover the joy of gardening. As they write, the team at The Garden of Words used to grow only plants. Now, they still grow plants, but they also grow businesses. The conversation centers around reclaiming joy, finding balance, and changing direction. On the cusp of this winter season of rest, rejuvenation, and unpacking, this feels like a timely moment to consider what we want to bring forward, and what we want to leave behind, as we head in to a new season of abundance and growth and learning in the next few months. Enjoy! Cultivating Place now has a donate button! We thank you so much for listening over the years and we hope you'll support Cultivating Place. We can't thank you enough for making it possible for this young program to grow even more of these types of conversations. The show is available as a podcast on SoundCloud and iTunes.
