Katrin Iskam - „Gärtnern ohne viel Geschiss“
Katrin Iskam
She is notorious, she is unique, and she is definitely crazy. She doesn't have THE green thumb, but rather two of them. "Gärtnern ohne viel Geschiss" is not only her motto but also the title of her current garden comedy live tour.
We're talking about Katrin Iskam, trained and active nurse, but above all the hottest discovery in the local gardening scene. Because who digs, shovels, and buries in rubber boots and a nightgown? Exactly, only the "Katrinchen," as she is affectionately called by her fans. And there are quite a few of them now.
More than 220,000 alone on her Instagram page @katrinsgarten, which was awarded 1st place in the garden design category by Europe's largest gardening magazine "mein schöner Garten" and also received the German Garden Book Prize.
The self-taught artist is a four-time SPIEGEL bestselling author (2022 "With Wit, Charm, and Method - The Slightly Different Gardening Book"; 2023 Book No. 2: "Go Big or Go Home: Garden Design with @katrinsgarten"; 2024 Book No. 3: "With Heart & Fork Through Katrin's Gardening Year 2025"; 2025 Book No. 4: "With Heart & Fork Through Katrin's Gardening Year 2026") and entertainer. Born and raised in Altmark, she now lives in Himbergen in the Lüneburg Heath. Can a place of residence sound more like a garden? Hardly.
And that's exactly where it is: Her garden. Her retreat. The origin of all her creative katrinsgarten constructions. And the nucleus of countless incredible stories. There, she has single-handedly felled 25 fir trees with a handsaw, following the motto: A woman can do it herself. And when the natural fertilizer inadvertently lands on the Christmas tree, only “Chief Gardener” Tyson, Katrin's dachshund, is maximum happy. Together, the two form an unbeatable team when it comes to planning, caring, and nurturing. Then there’s Waldemar, the divine husband, who prefers the fat hen in the chicken coop. And when Katrin advises on "cutting in," it's always with the best intentions. In "Gärtnern ohne viel Geschiss," Katrin Iskam serves up plenty of practical tips and just as many funny anecdotes. "Happy Garden" a whole different way. And in case someone does get lost in Himbergen and stands in front of her door, the "Katrinchen" has a down-to-earth and preventive piece of advice ready: Burglary is pointless with me, the money is in the garden.
All this and much more can be found in "Gärtnern ohne viel Geschiss," the live program by and with Katrin Iskam.
