Who am I? 

My name is Ruby!! I’ve been involved in organic, regenerative agriculture for about a decade.

My love for gardening started when I was looking for a different lifestyle and realized I needed more self-care in the daily routine. After my first year of growing plants, I was captivated by how self-empowered, self-resilient, and peaceful I felt. To witness how tiny seeds become massive plants. To be inspired by how much determination these plants had to thrive & survive. It truly ignited my creativity & passion

Looking forward to seeing you on the other side!
