Joel Karsten is a graduate from the University of Minnesota and received a Bachelor of Science degree in Horticulture Science. He worked in the “Green” industry after graduation, running his own landscape design and Installation company in the Minneapolis/St.Paul metro area. He is still an avid vegetable gardener, trying new varieties of anything he can fit into his 20 bale garden on his limited residential lot in Roseville. He is also a fan of tulips, dahlias, roses, hostas and day lilies, and is always on the lookout for new introductions.

I love this way of gardening! I am teaching veterans and their families how easy it is to do! THANK YOU to Joel for this book! It is filled with useful information, one of the best books available on straw bale gardening!
To say that Joel is an enthusiastic evangelist for SBG is an understatement. Hearing him on a radio call-in program inspired me, reading his books taught me, and meeting him encouraged me to become a straw bale gardening instructor so I can share my own enthusiasm: http://strawbalemarket.com/instructors/listings/joni-graves/
Joel is a straw bale gardening expert. He knows the topic inside and out and is a great speaker.
