Natasha has been interested in native plants since she was a child, when she spent a lot of time exploring woodlands and meadows. She completed her Master Gardener training in southeast Texas where she discovered the wonders of native plants. She maintained the local Master Gardener Native Plant Demonstration Garden until her return to the Edmonton area.

She is now an Alberta Master Gardener, a Certified Pollinator Steward, and has volunteered with the Edmonton Native Plant Society since 2019.
