Seed Packet
Founder & Editor
I’ve been digging in the dirt since I was a kid, stealing my grandma’s heirloom tomato seeds and planting them in my mother’s flowerbeds. There’s nothing quite like the quiet satisfaction of watching something grow from just a speck—especially when it’s something you can eat, share, or admire.
This site is my way of paying forward the lessons I’ve learned: how to coax life from stubborn seeds, how to turn a patch of soil into a feast, and why every garden, no matter its size, is worth tending.
