A warm welcome.

This is me, Frankie Paz.

Like most journeys, mine came with twists and turns. Moments that shaped me, moments that shook me and moments that felt like they would literally break me. Yet it was also these very moments that were the making of me. If someone had told me two decades ago that it’ll be plants that will help me through my hardest times and awaken parts of me I hadn’t even realized I had inside, I would have rolled my eyes at them. Yet now I have been on this plant journey for 15 years, and it has taken me on some wild adventures. Plants have assisted me in opening my heart, overcoming drug addiction, feeling connected to nature, feeling more joy and finding balance, even in one of the biggest cities in the world.
