About Us

My name is Candace Marra. I’m a lifelong gardener with experience growing productive vegetable gardens in three states. I started gardening in the Tri-Cities in 2014, and I enjoy harvests from my garden year-round.

Over the years, I have discovered the most efficient and rewarding gardening methods. I started Rooted in the Mountains in 2024 because I wanted to help others achieve the same success I have had.

We offer everything you need to plant a garden you will love:

Ready-made gardens

A comprehensive Tri-Cities gardening ebook (coming soon)
A backyard nursery with ornamental, native, and edible plants

Why You Need a Kitchen Garden Rooting for You

Few things in life are as satisfying as preparing food you grew yourself. If you have never tasted a homegrown tomato or enjoyed a freshly picked watermelon, you’ll discover a whole new world with a kitchen garden of any size. Even better, you can start enjoying the benefits of your kitchen garden before you plant your first seed:

Elevate your mood from exposure to sunlight, fresh air, and the joy your garden brings
Reset your circadian rhythm and get better sleep from sunlight exposure
Reduce inflammation through the grounding benefits gardening provides
Increase your sense of purpose and enjoy a new type of accomplishment every day, month, and year
Create a beautiful oasis in your backyard that provides zen and sustenance
Enhance the value of your space, whatever the size
Know where your food comes from and avoid harmful chemicals and food recalls
Grow healthy, chemical-free food for yourself, your family, or your community.
