________________________________________

Since 2015, I have been collecting and preserving plants from Saugerties and Woodstock, NY.

With the shifting climate and growing human footprint in our area, 

my goal is to build a collection that offers a good representation of the  plants growing in our region 

and will also be useful and helpful for future generations of nature lovers!
