About us

I grew up in Whitehorse, Yukon and was never really exposed to gardening or farming. As a kid I would try to plant random seeds that  I'd collected but the soil in Whitehorse is notoriously hard to grow in. I mostly ended up planting my pretend gardens with sticks, rocks and pinecones. Growing up in Whitehorse though, had led me to my husband Eddy, but the only substantial growing we did was adding our daughter and son to our family. In 2022 we decided to move to Dawson City and start Yukon Butterflies Flower Farm. We wanted to live a life where we could be closer to the land. I wanted a job where I could spend my days outside instead of behind a desk. We also wanted our children to grow up in a place where they could still be a little wild and where they could become friends wth Mother Earth. I'm so grateful to be able to live this life here in the community of Dawson City. And in return I can share the beauty and hope I found here through my Flower Farm.
