from I Dig Your Story · host idigyourstory
Joining me on the I Dig Your Story podcast today is landscape designer Jan Johnsen. Grab your popcorn my friends because this lady has some stories! Like what? We talk about growing “monster seeds," winning the NY Citywide science fair with a plant experiment, living in 1970s Japan how she became a sort-after landscape designer in Westchester County, New York. We also lament the fact that the world is out of touch with green spaces and how important it is to inform the next generations that yes indeed plants can be a career choice. It's a fun time with Jan! And seriously, we may need to have a Part II. Connect with Jan: Instagram: Johnsen Design Substack: Gardentopia LinkedIn: Jan Johnsen Website: Johnsen Landscapes
