Contributing Writers
K. Reka Badger writes weekly garden features for the Santa Barbara News-Press, as well as wine columns for Santa Maria Sun, Vintages and Santa Barbara Seasons. After nearly 20 years in Los Alamos, she and her husband moved to San Luis Obispo County, where they built a hilltop house and now spend time gardening, wrangling pets and enjoying the view.
Cheryl Morris lives on her family ranch near the peak of Figueroa Mountain. She is an avid wildflower photographer and spends a great deal of time in the wild countryside surrounding the ranchhouse she shares with her mother Dot Alter.
Geoffrey Tomb lives in Santa Ynez. He has been a newspaper reporter for the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette, the Miami Herald, the New York Daily News and the San Jose Mercury News. He left those places to come to here where he grows iris.
Ann Ditmar holds a master’s degree in geography from California State University Northridge and has taught there and at Pierce Community College for 12 years. During the past three years, she has conducted 120 local interviews documenting Solvang’s history for the Elverhøj Museum. Her interest in architectural history grew out of volunteer work for Pasadena Heritage.
Andrea Estrada is a freelance writer who has written for many local publications. She is a long-time Santa Barbara resident.
