She and her husband Rod opened Garden Crossings in 2002 as a family owned and operated business and haven't looked back. Garden Crossings is a family-owned Michigan greenhouse that focuses on growing high quality plants and making sure that each plant you order online has met their standards for delivery.

Botanical Garden Society of Northwest Michigan works directly with the Botanic Garden at Historic Barns Park in Traverse City, a 25-acre sanctuary of environmental preservation, recreation and education. With an emphasis on plant species native to Northwest Michigan, it creates and enhances habitats for various forms of wildlife.
