OUR MISSION
The Mission
Serving home + garden, lifestyle, food and botanical publications with fresh, SEO driven content to increase sales and engagement across all channels.
Writing engaging content that’s fresh, bold and articulate is our first priority. We also provide stunning, all original home & garden and organic food photography to hook your readers and keep them coming back for more.
“WE BELIEVE
That our homes are our sanctuaries. That our home & garden spaces should give us a daily reprieve from the worries of today. That we should find shelter & a cozy space in a designated “sacred space” with candles, plants & lots of blankets.
We believe in the power of genuine friendship & a home cooked meal with fresh, organic ingredients.
We believe in the power of positive thinking & that our home should be a reflection of that - filled with warmth, joy and serenity. ”

Since 2000 when I began my journalism career writing film features for the Gulf Herald, I’ve learned that photography is a great way to capture our best memories.
