Every career move brought Toni Gattone to where she is today. After college, she taught school for several years and then transitioned into sales, delivering presentation skills to corporate executives. She joined the National Speakers Association and served on their local board of directors. In 1990, her entrepreneurial spirit bloomed when she created her company in the gift and garden industry. In 2011, Toni became a Master Gardener and began teaching as a way of giving back to her community.
Today Toni Gattone is a speaker and author with a passion to help gardeners of all ages and abilities to garden for life. Toni knows from experience that physical limitations are the reason we need to re-evaluate how and when we garden, and how we can re-work our gardens for greater comfort and safety. With grace and humor, she explains how you can adapt your favorite tools, or replace them with quality ergonomic tools.
Toni speaks to audiences nationwide to enable them to grow resilience, cultivate wisdom and inspire joy. Toni’s book, The Lifelong Gardener, Garden with Ease & Joy at Any Age, will be published in 2019 by Timber Press.
