STORY TIME! Behind the name -PLANT👬🏾TAS- When Kevin () was thinking of our name, he wanted to incorporate pieces of him he held close to his corazoncito. Of course, the main focus is plantas, so that was the focus. He added two “i’s” to represent me () and our journey together. Finally, he has a close relationship to his abuelita and lovingly calls her “Ta”, so he decided to add that in the end of the name, thus the name “PlantiiTAs”.
Our goals is to make Plantiitas more than just your favorite houseplant shop, but also a space for our local community. For me (Anthony), offering a space for the most often marginalized is at my core. We are in the works of setting up webinars to discuss mental health, offering plant repotting classes at affordable costs, and opening our shop (DETAILS COMING SOON) to the community as a space for collective healing and to share narratives that are often overlooked.
We are so excited for what’s to come, and thank you for all of your support thus far. Stay tuned for a webinar introducing you to Black and Brown owned plant shops in Southern California, we cannot wait to share that with you!
