More About HeatherHey there! My name is Heather, and I’m so excited to meet you!
A little about me—I grew up in a small town where I was actively involved in FFA and my high school’s AG program. Those years sparked my love for agriculture and plants! After high school, I earned a certificate in administrative office skills while working at local nurseries to expand my knowledge. In 2017, I joined the Prides Corner Farms team, and last year I completed the Connecticut Certified Horticulturist Program and received my certification!
While plants are a big passion of mine, they’re not my only one! I’ve been a competitive artistic roller skater (not roller derby!) for over 13 years, earning seven national medals and traveling across the U.S., meeting incredible people along the way. When I’m not on the road, you’ll find me in my gardens, working with my horses, or spending time with my two amazing kids.
Heather's Favorite PlantOh, and if you're wondering about my favorite plantright now, it's Hydrangea mac. Eclipse®! I love its striking red flowers and dark foliage.
