The Invisible Gardener grew up in New York, Puerto Rico, Cuba and Miami Florida, where he learned to use organics from his mother, who naturally grew her fruits and vegetables. In 1972, he founded The Invisible Gardener, Inc. to impact the world’s environmental problems and educate & provide alternatives to chemical products used in the home and garden. With a common sense approach and endless enthusiasm, he champions Mother Nature’s wisdom through educational programs and his books.

The Cannabis Connection hosted by Christopher Carr provides stimulating conversation with professionals, regulators, researchers, and experts striving to demystify common misconceptions about Cannabis. Our radio broadcast educates and opens a dialogue surrounding the potential Cannabis has to heal ailments, but also our society from a social and economic standpoint. Carr's professional mission is to educate the public on Cannabis stewardship, science, policy, industry, and research. An adviser for Santa Cruz County and Executive Committee Member for Community Prevention Partners, Carr also serves as a Guest Lecturer at Cabrillo College, College of Botanical Healing Arts, and judge for both High Times Cup and The Emerald Cup. Carr represents Santa Cruz in the greater Cannabis Community and has positive rapport with the leading activists in Sacramento and Emerald Triangle.
