Monica Milla, the Garden Faerie, has been a passionate gardener for well over a decade. She enjoys teaching adult enrichment classes and giving gardening talks. She serves on the editorial advisory board and Volunteer Committee at Matthaei Botanical Gardens and Nichols Arboretum.

Monica is an advanced master gardener and a master composter. She has researched, designed, and planted a garden for cats at a feline retirement community and an 1860s fountain garden for the Cobblestone Farm historic property.

Monica has also tended gardens for clients and stewarded a native plant garden.

To contact Monica to speak to your group, teach a class, inquire about the progress of her book Fun with Winter Seed Sowing, or just to have a nice gardening chat (warning: she will likely talk about compost, her cats, and rain barrels), please send an email.
