About us.
Plants. They surround us. They're in our food, in the clothes we wear, in the medication we take and even in the buildings around us. Plants are an integral part of all of us.
Our team is a group of amateur and professional gardeners that believes in the power of plants. We also have military ties and a sense of responsibility when it comes to serving those that have served our country for generations.
