About us
We are two brothers, born and raised in Wisconsin’s Lake Country. Now, we are both raising families here as well.
With years of experience in landscaping and distribution, we’ve seen how chemical herbicides and synthetic fertilizers have damaged our ecosystem. While searching for solutions, we discovered permaculture and food forestry. We have dedicated ourselves to growing plants that heal the land while healing us through food, medicine, and being outside to care for them.
Our nursery offers one of the most diverse selections of edible and medicinal plants tailored to hardy growing zones. Every day, we’re in it—stratifying seeds, rooting cuttings, grafting fruit trees, and experimenting with unique varieties. We love it.
One of the most common questions we get is, "you can actually grow that here?" Some of the plants may surprise you! With that being said, there is some very conflicting information online about what you can and can't grow in our climate. That is why we have been experimenting at our nursery, so that you don't have to.
Please reach out with any questions or inquiries.
