  • Description

    Plants are my passion and growing them is my skill. Connecting to plants and people make my heart sing. I also dig food and cooking and music, but I'm not a musician or chef. I am a grower, and I love sharing knowledge with others one on one or in small groups like the total plant geek that I am.

  • More details about your skills

    I have 16 years of experience in applied horticulture. I am a licensed horticulturist and commercial pesticide applicator. I am highly skilled in plant care, propagation, and production; proficient in greenhouse and nursery management; and competent in irrigation repairs. I also work very well with and managing volunteers. I enjoy collaborating with community partners. I spent my earlier years (teens and twenties) working in coffee shops and other food-service related jobs. I once considered myself a foodie, and I still love and appreciate and (sometimes, but not as much) cook good, home, and fine foods.

    50

  • What else ...

    Besides being in love with plants, I also enjoy spending time walking, hiking, and riding my bike. General chilling out - watching stand-up comedy, playing rumikub/scrabble/bananagrams, and sitting around a fire. I love exploring all things gardening, astrology, consciousness/subconsciousness, communication/relationships, overall beingness and better ways of loving the earth, myself, and others. I really like meditation, books, music, and art, but in a casual way. I renew my commitment to seeking knowledge and understanding and building a stronger voice to better stand up against all forms of racism and oppression.
