piedmont growing

Crunchy, organic, stay-at-home unschool mom, home-scale food grower, and native plant and ecology enthusiast. I want to do my part.

Launched in 2024, I have a very small-scale native and edible plant nursery. I also sell garden and craft supplies, and plant nerd apparel.

I can present talks and demonstrations or lead workshops on a variety of related topics, including edible natives, invasive species, propagation, lawn conversion, and more.

I can help identify native and invasive plants, suggest site plantings, and recommend species. I also run a small apprenticeship program.

1/2 acre of residential suburban metropolitan Georgia land, in the Southern Outer Piedmont ecoregion, Hardiness Zone 8a. Frequent site of homeschool events, workshops, and demonstrations.

80 acres of rural, off-grid Alabama land, in the Southern Inner Piedmont ecoregion, Hardiness Zone 8a. Confirmed longleaf pine savanna remnant, that I am raising funds to restore and manage.

Like what you see? Want to support it? Learn how to support the goings-on, send donations, and/or purchase supplies from an Amazon wishlist.

I provide community composting drop-off,  as well as the collection of hard-to-recycle materials to bring to CHaRM, for those unable to go.

My list of community organizations, leaders, services, plant nurseries, seed suppliers, tools, supplies, books, and podcasts to know.

I endorse matrix planting for native plants. I've had native landscape design instruction from PhDs Benjamin Vogt & Richard Ludwig.
