I'm Whitney Klonsky, founder and CEO of Rhubarb, a specialized platform for home gardeners featuring AI that understands your unique growing conditions, like Strava for gardening or AllTrails for outdoor enthusiasts, but designed specifically for the gardening community. I'm a lifelong home gardener, mother of three, and former coach who has studied horticulture, permaculture, agroecology, and nutrition. I hold professional certifications as a Horticulturist (Cert III, Australia), Precision Nutrition Level 1 coach, and NASM Personal Training with corrective exercise and lifestyle specializations. After spending seven years in Australia and experiencing firsthand how food, health, and climate are interconnected, I’m now back in the Pacific Northwest helping more people get growing, wherever they live. I provide expert insights on a broad range of gardening topics, particularly how they connect with nutrition, fitness, sustainability, and seasonal living. I can speak to everything from homegrown food as part of a broader food security solution, to water-wise gardening, biodiversity, ways to support local ecology through everyday garden choices, and the intersection of technology with traditional growing practices. As tech startup founder I can also speak to my experiences in a late career switch. I’m happy to share timely tips, trends we’re seeing in the Rhubarb community, or provide quotes for upcoming stories. You can also find me at www.joinrhubarb.com.
