She also hosted a garden advice radio program in Hudson, New York, where she and her husband had a weekend home. This led to a regular spot on the Fox morning program. Michael Gelman, the producer of the Regis and Kathie Lee morning show, saw Cassandra on the Fox show and asked her to become a semi-regular garden expert, sometimes interviewer and location hostess on the show.
