Cultivating Tradition
The History behind the "Sower of Stories and Seeds"

 

 

Kelly graduated from North Dakota State University in Agronomy. Soon after getting married, she was called to educate their three children at home for 20 years.

During that time of learning with her children, she began questioning the notion of the ‘Dark Ages.’ Intrigued by this shadowed time of the Middle Ages in Europe, she stumbled upon
the forgotten art of Mary Gardens, which was passed down through generations of the ‘unlettered’ people and monks of Catholic Christendom. In true homeschool style, she began seeking out-of-print books on Marian floral traditions.

She now combines her passion for her Catholic faith, all things plants and soil, along
with hand-painting each unique packet cover with the legends and lore. All products are
uniquely focused on preserving and celebrating our rich Christian history through Marian gardens. Kelly hopes to strengthen faith formation with beauty, story, and ecology, ushering in a new dawn of culture through Our Blessed Mother.       

We are proud to donate 5% of all sales to the Saint Kateri Conservation Center. They are a Catholic conservancy and land trust that promotes faith, ecology, and biodiversity. Every seed packet you purchase helps support their important work in preserving our natural world through the lens of the Catholic Church. Learn more about their mission at www.kateri.org
