Meet the Founders
The People Behind the Plants
Almanac Planting Co was built by two people who found their way to horticulture from very different starting points — and discovered that growing plants together was the thing that made everything else make sense.
Founder · Greenhouse & Nursery Operations
Stephanie founded Almanac Planting Co in 2019 and has been its heart from the beginning. She oversees everything growing on the property — from propagation and crop planning to plant health and the final quality check before anything ships. Her philosophy hasn't changed since day one: choose every variety with intention, grow it right, and never rush it out the door.
Co-Founder · E-Commerce, Customer Service & Logistics
Justin came on full-time in 2021 after Stephanie had already proven the concept through Etsy. A former helicopter flight engineer and combat veteran, he found his way to horticulture through an unlikely path — and now builds the systems, handles the customers, and keeps the operation moving so Stephanie can focus on what she does best.
Rooted in the Same Soil
Stephanie and Justin share a vision of people-centered horticulture — where small details matter, every plant represents real care from real people, and the work itself is as meaningful as what it produces. They raise their two kids on the same farm where they grow their plants, and the seasons shape everything.
