Kay Hamilton Estey - Emeritus Producer, Marketing Manager and Seminar Manager
After producing the last eight Shows, and then filling the role of Seminar and Marketing Manager for two years, Kay has retired leaving the Show in Lynette's capable hands. Kay started in the business as a garden designer, and even designed and built a garden in the San Francisco Show in 2002. She used her business background and knowledge of the green industry to work with landscape professionals, plant people, artists, students - in fact, anyone connected in any way with plants and beauty - to help create a gorgeous shows. Kay is a member of too many horticultural organizations to list, and has never met a plant she didn't like. She loves to read, draw, write, and travel. She gardens on a small plot of land behind her San Francisco home, trying to bring order to an unruly collection of plants, cats, raccoons, possums and squirrels.
