Anita Mitchell is someone who loves greenkeeping! She will be the first to tell you that she hasn't done it forever, but you'll quickly notice just how much she enjoys her profession!

Anita has the privilege of only working at one golf course thus far in her career - the incredible Te Arai Links in New Zealand!

There's a running theme during this podcast, and that is to have a laugh! Between bloopers and hilarious comments, we had an absolute blast recording this episode!

Join Anita and I, as Anita walks us through her relatively short career and an true love for greenkeeping, beginning at a time during the construction of these two world renowned golf courses! Oh yeah, and we have a good laugh and many things along the way!

You hit 'em clean and we'll keep 'em green!
