Danny Carmichael
As the copywriter for Gardener’s Supply, Danny usually confines his writing to fashioning the most egregiously entertaining puns he can muster for the GSC catalog and website product pages. But sometimes he shifts gears, and (armed with a bit more substance) crafts a more educational post. Before he became GSC’s “man behind the curtain,” he was a marketing & advertising copywriter for clean energy and food & beverage companies, as well as an urban greening expert at LA nonprofit, TreePeople. Danny currently resides on his own little slice of heaven in Burlington, Vermont, with his wife and two kids, where he got more garden than he ever bargained for — and had to go work with the industry’s leading gardening experts to dig himself out.
