We are SO excited to have Amanda Thomsen, of Kiss My Aster fame, as our special guest on our upcoming show!
If you don't know Amanda, then you're in for a real treat. An avid horticulturist, Amanda has plenty of experience, having worked in gardens, garden centers, and landscaping for the last 20 years. But don't let that fool you - she also believes in a little rule-breaking and a lot of humor when it comes to gardening.

Amanda not only has hands-on gardening experience, but also gives classes and speaks to groups. And if that isn't enough, she is also an author of TWO books: "Kiss My Aster: A Graphic Guide to Creating a Terrific Yard Totally Tailored to You" (Storey 2012) and "Backyard Adventure: Get Messy, Get Wet, Build Cool Things, and Have Tons of Fun" (Storey 2019).

You can find these books, and more about Amanda, including her pink retro kitchen, as featured on Rachel Ray, at her website

Please note: The actual show starts 12pm CT, but we'll start the stream around 11:50 to share some fun preview videos.
