meet the plant doctor.

Hi there! I'm Sierra.

I've always been driven to help people understand and connect with the natural world. My curiosity about plants and their environment led me to learn more and more. In 2020, I started consulting so I could share that knowledge with folks right at their home, farm or business.


I've spent the last 15 years working and learning about plant health. 

As a 6th generation Idahoan, I understand Idaho landscapes, plants, and people. For five years I helped oversee the plant collections at the Idaho Botanical Garden, and taught hundreds of residents classes on topics from soil health to pruning. Now as a Plant Health Consultant, I coach homeowners, farmers and other business owners on how to care for the plants that they love and rely on.


My philosophy is simple: use science to do the best job possible.

 

My Qualifications


  • Bachelors of Science in Horticulture from Oregon State University
  • 15 years in horticulture, specialty in plant health
  • INLA Certified Plant Diagnostician
  • ISA Certified Arborist
  • Masters of Science in Entomology from University of Nebraska-Lincoln


My Specialties


  • Fruit tree pest and diseases, pruning and health
  • Grape and berry pest and diseases, pruning and health
  • Idaho native plants and xeric plant landscapes
  • Pollinator garden and habitat landscape assessment and planning
  • Ornamental horticulture problems (planting, health, pruning)



Expertise when you need it most.


Whether you’re a homeowner trying to care for your garden the right way, or a green industry employer looking to train your people, I can help. I work in tandem with homeowners, arborists, landscapers, designers and nursery professionals to provide you with science-based solutions to plant health problems.
