I'm Kristin Parsons, the founder/farmer behind cultivated. I've spent the last ten years designing edible landscapes and 14 years growing my own half acre forest garden in sunny Scottsdale, Arizona. Overall, I've been growing food, herbs, and flowers in Arizona for 22 years!

I am an NCIDQ certified Interior Designer, certified Permaculture Designer, LEED Accredited Professional, and a student of the Floret workshops for both flower farming and flower arranging. I am a founding member of the Arizona Flower Collective and have been involved with many local groups for local food, herbs, and flowers the entire time I have called Arizona home.

Between two properties, I farm a total of nearly ten acres in Arizona and I am honored to be a steward of the land along with my husband and my son.

I'll be adding updates to this site in between farming and taking my son to sports! There is so much to share and I'm truly blessed to be doing what I love.
