At the heart of our mission is to reconnect individuals with the innate rhythms & healing properties of Mother Nature.

We believe she holds the key to restoring balance in our lives. Our intention is to facilitate this journey by providing a space and invitation to connect, remember, and exchange in community - surrounded by thriving greenery, during all four seasons in Maine.

OUR MISSION
♡

Hi ! We’re Darren and Amalia — two doers with a vision bigger than ourselves — on a mission to transform our historic 1800's Maine farm into a Community Botanical Garden that is fully supported by the community.

With your support, we’re raising $80,000 to cover essential infrastructure and material costs needed to bring The Gardens at East Pine to life starting THIS SPRING !

All donations received through June 2026 will go directly toward developing The Gardens and installing essential infrastructure. Once we open to the public in June, visitors will be invited to contribute through a pay-what-you-can model to support the gardens’ ongoing care.
