Looking for a Michigan author on Gardening...
Looking for any leads or lists of authors from Michigan that specialize in gardening or related topic. Our library is partnering with the local Garden Club and would like to host an event with an author. Our goal is to keep the author local to Michigan so if you know of any Michigan authors that have written on gardening or anything related we would love their name and contact info if possible. Thank you in advance! Jolene Faber Administrative Assistant Bay County Library System 500 Center Ave. Bay City, MI 48708 (989)894-2837 ext. 2225
Hi Jolene, I highly recommend Bevin Cohen of Small House Farm. He lives in Sanford so he is in your area. We have had him here for two different programs in the past and will have him back twice more this growing season. He has published a selection of books on different gardening related topics as well. You can get more info on his website www.smallhousefarm.com and browse his calendar to see his availability. Please let me know what other questions you have. Wendy Wendy L.

I second Bevin Cohen. He is a great presenter and draws a crowd. On Wed, Mar 26, 2025 at 9:19 AM Wendy Chapman via Michlib-l < michlib-l@mcls.org> wrote:

I completely agree! I saw Bevin at a neighboring library program and was so impressed, I got his contact information and we booked him here at Howell!
