tall trees, quiet walks, star gazing, smooth stones, and tiny treasures. Nurseries, nature, hardware stores and art supply aisles are my happy places. Organizing anything is my superpower and I'm known for being a patient teacher. Plants speak to me. Nature soothes me. Hummingbirds, bumblebees and butterflies make me smile. Always. When I'm not designing gardens, creating characters or dreaming up rhymes you can most likely find me pedaling around the small town in the mountains of southern Oregon where I live, surrounded by gardens in a house powered by the sun.
