Susan Harris’s discovery of blogging back in 2005 led to all kinds of fun – and a second career as a garden writer. The blogging and gardening all take place in Greenbelt, Maryland, just outside Washington, D.C. (Off-topic, check out Greenbelt Live, the community blog she recently started.) Susan also coaches gardening in the greater D.C. area.
As a Garden Center Blogger, Susan works to create, manage, write and promote blogs and websites for independent garden centers. See the Mahoney’s, Homestead and Behnkes blogs for examples of her writing for garden-center blogs.
Her individual blog, GardenerSusan, covers mainly gardening but occasionally veers off-topic. Her website about sustainable gardening includes her own articles, plus contributions from 23 writers.
Susan’s articles have appeared in such magazines as Fine Gardening, Organic Gardening, and Landscape Architecture.
Susan spends far too much time promoting healthier landscapes through the Lawn Reform Coalition (which she founded in 2009), Montgomery Victory Gardens, and DC Urban Gardeners.
