The Story Behind The Plant House 208

Hey, I’m Heather, the founder of The Plant House 208, proud Idaho native, Certified Alcohol and Drug Counselor, and current MSW student working toward horticultural therapy certification. Between grad school, counseling, and life; my grounding place has always been in my garden.

Horticultural therapy is a structured, evidence-based approach that uses purposeful interaction with plants to improve mental, emotional, and physical well-being. Research shows it reduces stress, enhances focus, and fosters resilience, outcomes essential to long-term recovery and wellness (Li et al., 2022; Stigsdotter et al., 2023).
It’s not "just gardening" it’s growth in action.

That belief is the heart of The Plant House 208. Every purchase supports recovery-rooted programs, from plant donations to treatment graduates to veggie start giveaways for those in treatment and/or sober-living homes, all leading toward my goal of creating a community hub where people can heal, learn, and grow together.

When you shop here, you’re not just decorating your space, you’re helping others find growth, too. 🌿
