OUR PUBLISHER
Tom Castronovo is the publisher. He was featured on television every Sunday night and Monday on News 12 New Jersey as the "Backyard Gardener" for 6 1/2 years.
Tom is a "Garden State" resident and a horticultural and community educator. As a former landscaper by trade, he and his family have roots in farming, garden centers, nurseries and florists. For many years, Tom found it difficult, at best, to locate information on up-to-date gardening and landscaping information in print. After successfully completing a Master Gardener course, he recognized the need to assemble, publish and disseminate reliable and timely information to the gardening public in a friendly format. The seeds to the Gardener News were planted and it is now growing every day.
