About Me

Cedar Bridge Botanicals was a vague idea I had in December of 2019 while I was in the process of getting my horticulture degree. At the time, it was just some thoughts and a medium sized cardboard box. The beginnings of CBB was very different to how it looks now. At the time, I was making art from dried flowers, painting with watercolors, experimenting with ink on actual leaves, and some products with essential oils. During the 2020 COVID shutdown, I joined the wave of crafters and vendors looking for a way to replace the suspended craft fairs on Facebook and promoted my Etsy shop as much as possible. It was during this time, too, I assumed it wasn’t possible to ship plants reliably. This was something else that COVID taught me was untrue.

Flash forward to February of 2021 and I have had several sales, repeat customers, and social media of (almost) every kind. It was about this time, too, that I changed my focus. I became a vendor at the Steel City Reptile Expo where I began to dive into the world of bioactive enclosures. As I grew, I began to offer more variety with my plants, became a vendor at more events, met more people, and began to offer more products. As I continue to grow, I am continuing to offer more products and more classes, as well as hosting some minor events of my own.

Today, you can find me at a wide variety of events! Home Shows, Farmers Markets, Craft Fairs, and, of course, Reptile Expos are all part of my regular rotation. I now also offer classes, and have been invited to speak at a variety of events, as well! For more detailed information on where I will be when, check out the Events tab. And to keep up with all of my goings on, follow me on social media like Facebook, Instagram, and Bluesky with the handle Cedar Bridge Botanicals and consider signing up for my newsletter for exclusive deals, monthly updates, and to be notified when classes are coming up. Together, we can help our indoor and outdoor plants thrive, not just survive!
