Gardening professionally for over 20 years. The past 6 years I’ve run this business, assisting residents and businesses through out the Twin Cities with all of their garden needs.

I have a degree in Landscape Architecture from the University of Minnesota, Twin Cities.

My history includes teaching sustainable gardening practices, known as Permaculture in both Kenya and Haiti. I’ve spent time studying plant medicine in the jungles of Costa Rica, the hills of Ireland and in throughout Minnesota. For two years I produced a cut flower farm using biodynamic, all natural processes. The flower bouquets were sold at coops and farmer’s market throughout the Twin Cities.  

All of these experiences and more have informed Being Strong in Nature.
