A small, place-based nursery rooted in the California Delta

Tides & Trowels offers nursery plants, living succulent art, and locally sourced garden soil—selected for home gardens and seasonal care.

We work at a human pace and are guided by land, water, and the rhythms of the growing season.

Succulent Art

Living succulent arrangements created to grow, shift, and be cared for over time. Each piece is made by hand, using plants selected for longevity and balance.

Available in small batches during garden hours.

Care and Intention

Tides & Trowels offers a slower, more attentive approach to growing. We’re guided by care over convenience, sustainable practices, and plant and people health over constant expansion.

Our nursery is built for people who value seasonal offerings, better outcomes, and an ongoing relationship with the places they tend.
