About Me
Hello! I'm Jamie, mother of two, college student (again), SoCal Soul creator and nature loving hippie at heart.
As a Southern California native, I grew up surrounded year-round by lush natural landscapes and some of the most incredible plants. As an adult in the Midwest, six years ago, I found my plant loving soul had transitioned into a love for vegetable gardening and houseplants. These plants became my escape through some difficult life transitions and long days in the corporate world.
At the end of 2021 I left my office job to go back to school for Horticulture and pursue a new dream. It's my hearts desire by creating SoCal Soul that maybe someone else can find encouragement to seek new adventures, and find peace & joy through one plant and connection at a time.
I truly believe in the saying "it's the little things". Whether it be the joy you get from harvesting a crop of tomatoes, picking out the perfect greeting card for a loved one, or even finding a lucky penny when walking down the street, it's the little things in life that can brighten your day the most. And I hope the plants and products you find here will be a part of those things that brighten your day!

Follow my journey!
