From Allan Armitage to Ellen Zachos, Timber Press authors are the top experts in the gardening world.
The Timber Press speakers bureau gathers information on our top speakers in one place — their preferred speaking topics, where they live, and their bio.
If you have an event coming up, but don't know who you want to speak at it, look through our list for inspiration — we have the right speaker for you.
Most of our authors are willing to travel, so even if they're across the country from your event, ask us about them and we'll see what we can arrange.
If you have any questions, please let us know at publicity@timberpress.com.
