Steve & Cheryl Jones

As the author of ?The Plant Man,? a free weekly column published in 85 newspapers nationwide, Steve Jones has become the ?go to? guy for people with problems or questions about gardening, trees, shrubs, groundcover, lawn care and ?all things landscaping.? Steve?s wife, Cheryl, frequently fields reader questions too, as she shares Steve?s expertise on gardening and landscaping. Together, they own and operate Greenwood Nursery, supplying everything from small orders for homeowners to thousands of trees for corporations and municipalities via www.greenwoodnursery.com.

Steve and Cheryl?s goal is the preservation of the natural environment, and their non-profit Web site www.landsteward.org provides free advice and how-to articles for landowners large and small, as well as archived Plant Man columns.

Steve frequently travels overseas, often with outreach programs sponsored by the USDA, with the goal of creating sustainable agriculture and preserving natural habitats in developing countries.
