Food, Beauty, Healing, and Connection
I love gardens! They provide healthy food, functional beauty, healing spaces, and connection to nature. They inspire the creative, artistic, and spiritual and they give us a time and place to slow down and breathe deeply. My mission is to heal body, mind, spirit, and planet one garden at a time.
GARDEN SERVICES
Whether you are interested in a few plants in pots on a patio, raised beds in a yard, or a small food forest, anyone can have a beautiful, productive, healing garden. I offer organic, sustainable, regenerative, and personal garden services specializing in food, herb, flower, craft, and native plants.
