Celebrating Gardener Kelsey: The Creative Heart Behind You Are a Gardener®

Hello, gardeners! Today, we want to take a moment to express our heartfelt gratitude for Gardener Kelsey, who has been sharing her incredible talents with us since the very beginning. Not only is she a remarkable artist, illustrator, and videographer, but her unwavering dedication to our company is truly unmatched. She has been rooting for us on from day one, starting when she sketched our first fox on a scrap piece of paper (SEE BELOW).

Kelsey embraced our vision, painted our story, and helped create the magic in every episode of Hello Gardeners®, as well as in all the videos we've produced together. We are incredibly thankful to have her as part of our gardening team and as one of the founding gardeners in our community. Her talents have brought color to our world and have guided us through each new edition of You Are a Gardener®, not only through her illustrations but also in book layouts and printing.


Her patience is unwavering, and the way she brings our company to life through her illustrations, videos, and creative collaborations gives us the confidence to keep on growing. Thank you, Gardener Kelsey, from the bottom of our hearts.

To showcase her talents, Gardener Kelsey has created a beautiful time-lapse video of her painting one of the new illustrations for our third edition of You Are a Gardener®. This new illustration is one of our personal favorites, filled with tons of personal details. It features our dog, Gardener Diamond, one of Kelsey’s chickens, a sweet photo of Anna and Aidan hanging on the wall, a picture of the barn from our family’s apple farm, a silhouette of the original Foxie (who was a cat), our SEEDs Technique™ poster, and a You Are a Gardener pennant reminiscent of one of the craft videos Kelsey shared a while back on our #PullYourWeeds® Blog.








These personal touches help keep You Are a Gardener® meaningful and connected. We hope you enjoy it as much as we do! And if you haven't yet picked up a copy of the third edition, click here to purchase one now. It makes a wonderful gift to give or receive, and its timeless message will continue to grow.
