About Me
Meet Dee
As a young child, I remember seeing my grandpa take care of his garden in upstate NY. He had strawberries, blackberries, pears, peaches, apples and plums! I'm sure he had vegetable too but I was not a fan of veggies back then. All I knew was when the fruit was ripe, it was time for me and my cousins to help pick and eat the fruit... fast forward to 2019. I started to see my friends with houseplants, (Kristine and Alyssa), and was inspired to buy a plant or 2.
My plant mom journey officially started at the end of 2019. The first plant I bought was a snake plant aka Sansevieria aka Mother in law's tongue. At the beginning of 2020, I had 3 plants in my living room! When the pandemic started, I began to buy more and more plants! My green thumb started to develop and 3 plants turned into 30 something. I'm still unsure of how many I have at this very moment. My weekends are spent plant shopping so who knows the true number lol
My newfound love of plants and gardening has truly been life changing. Taking care of plants has been a healing journey for me. I have been able to overcome depression, anxiety, fear and resentment. I am not the same person I was in 2019 or 2020. I have tapped into nature and my green thumb has not only helped me emotionally, but also physically, mentally, spiritually and socially.
I am here to help you tap into these amazing benefits also. Follow my plant journey and when you are ready, let's explore it together. Your green thumb is calling!!
