"I've been gardening since I was three years old, and I know what it means to be a dirt nerd," Martha said. "Gardening has always been a hobby and passion of mine, so it's been a joy working with Miracle-Gro, and I'm honored to now be able to add chief gardening officer to my resume as I continue to work alongside their team."
Martha Stewart will expand her role as the face of the "Gro Like Martha" campaign by collaborating with Miracle-Gro on exclusive content for Miracle-Gro platforms. This new content series, called "GROwing with Martha Stewart," will feature monthly videos, newsletters, and a downloadable calendar with Martha's product recommendations and gardening insights for all skill levels. Additionally, Martha has a new Gardening Handbook set to release on March 18.
"Naming Martha chief gardening officer is the pinnacle of our partnership and an important step in our mission to make Gardening more accessible for all," said Sadie Oldham, vice president and general manager of the Gardens business at ScottsMiracle-Gro. "Not only is she going to challenge us in the best ways possible, but she is extremely insightful and will serve as a trusted resource for our team, Miracle-Gro customers and the Gardening community as a whole."
As Miracle-Gro's chief gardening officer, Martha will serve as a strategic advisor with an eye toward the future of the brand, providing insights based on her experience and acumen in both business and the garden.
