When the pandemic hit in 2020, we saw panic buying and supply-chain issues becoming prevalent on a mass scale, and we decided that we would make an effort to try and become more self sufficient and independent of the system and powers that be.

We had in years prior started the process of gardening and growing our own food, as living in Florida comes with the danger of hurricanes and storms causing black-outs, housing damage, flooding, increase in gas prices, road traffic, etc. We had already seen how fragile systems could be, but 2020 really put into perspective the necessity of this endeavor.

Our goal is to reconnect man to the Earth, turn lawns into gardens of Eden, create environments for people to be independent of governmental systems, and learn the importance of healthy eating and natural ways of living. We don’t know everything, in fact, we’re just starting, we are learning, evolving, changing. So join us on this journey of discovery, and learn what it means to Awaken the Wild Soul within.

Beyond our interest in gardening, we are also artists and visionaries, perhaps more than anything else, as art is our original love. Check out Sacred Visions Studio to see the magic we make.
