Garden Presentations

Is your club or organization looking for a speaker?
Looking for some inspiration? Or maybe a gardeny fix? It’s that time of year when gardeners begin the search for some earthy healing. Mary Jasch, publisher/editor of DIG IT! Magazine, the Art & Science of East Coast Gardening, offers garden-filled PowerPoint presentations for garden clubs, plant societies, libraries and other organizations and groups.
Mary scours the East and Northwest Coasts in search of exceptional gardens for your pleasure. In her quest for the “Wow!”, she visits gardens of all styles from classic English cottage gardens to formal Italianate gardens to backyard wildlife habitats and those that pay homage to the past. From a fifth of an acre to 1,000, each garden is outstanding. Mary is a freelance writer/photographer and author of Best Hikes with Dogs – New Jersey. (Mountaineers Books)

We wish you all the best with your many endeavors." - Marianne Jones, Secretary
"Mary Jasch presented her Lecture on the Private Gardens of NY, NJ, CT and Eastern PA to the Basking Ridge Garden Club on Monday, February 7th, 2022. The gardens were spectacular. Mary is a knowledgeable gardener as well as Photographer. The range of styles was fun to see and just what we all needed in the middle of winter! We all hope to be able to go on one of her bus tours soon."

"I am the president of the Sussex County Garden Club and it is my job to
find speakers for the meetings. What a surprise I found Mary Jasch of DIG
IT! Magazine on one of my hunting expeditions. She has spoken at our meetings several times and she is always prepared and knows what she is talking about. Her presentations are interesting and she keeps the members’ attention during the whole show. She is never late and after the meeting she stays to answer any questions that members may have. I would recommend her to anyone who is looking for an intelligent speaker who delivers."
- Fuddy Vidam, President, Sussex County Garden Club
