Welcome to my virtual patch...

I'm so glad you are here!

I'll tell you a little story about why I garden...

I'm not actually known for my roots. I'm known for my ability to pick up and transplant myself in different climates, different cultures and different circumstances which have all shaped my adventures and learning with nature.

The desire to connect with community, protect the environment and experience immersive learning led me across the US from my Illinois roots (Woot! Chi-Town forever!), to Atlantic living in Delaware, then on to island life in Hawaii, a wild decade up in Alaska, and later, across the oceans again, to the Swiss countryside -- where I now live, garden and forage with my husband and our young daughter.

Talk about being Wild & Rooted!

I've learned a few things along my journey of 20+ years creating and maintaining gardens on 3 different continents. I've learned that people and plants will surprise you. Be ready to receive the gifts nature has for you. I've learned that gardening can save you when you feel lonely, disheartened or helpless. You have only to plant a seed... and you're here now, so you've already done that!

I've learned that it gives me great joy to share the garden journey with you and to inspire and empower you to grow a garden and life you love. Here at Invincible Gardens, you can expect me to cultivate a space where you can learn to grow an organic garden oasis that fills your pantry, heals our planet and nourishes your soul.

Thank you for being here and committing to growing a better future together! You can find out more about our unique projects and garden spaces below.

With lots of love from my patch to yours!
