Basker offers private, group, and workplace programming - in addition to sharing seasonal seed collections and plants from the Basker garden.
Please get in touch for speaking, panels, and workshops, too.
I believe we can all benefit from horticultural therapy (HT). And also believe you don’t have to be into nature in order to have a relationship with it. Your personal goals will guide us to the best HT path for you.
I’ve helped people eat more vegetables with my cookbook (One Part Plant, HarperWave) and have raised awareness for women struggling with a chronic health condition (Know Your Endo, Avery/Penguin Random House). Outside of writing, I’ve been a speaker and hosted podcasts. I’ve also had a lot of fun consulting for some of the best food and lifestyle brands out there.
Throughout my career, the two threads connecting my work have been thoughtful design and thoughtful ways to help people feel good. And now with my studies in horticulture, landscape design, and a certificate in Horticultural Therapy (HT) – those threads have merged together with Basker.
HT has helped me navigate some pretty challenging times in my life. It’s also helped me build a deeper connection to self and a bigger reservoir of hope (and patience) for when I need it most.
I’m eager to hear what led you here and to see what ways HT can help you, too.
With love,
Jessica
