Hi, I’m Meag
Horticulturist & Flora-Oriented Creative
You’ll likely find me with a camera in one hand and a trowel in the other.
I’ve worn a lot of hats, from farmer to marketer to event photographer, but the underlying theme in all that I do is building community - preferably over a good meal.
Working at the intersection of farming, art, and culture, I’ve learned that food is about much more than nourishment - it's about history, culture, love, community, togetherness, and how we find ways to survive, adapt, and take care of each other and this Earth we’re lucky enough to call home.
