Still here. Still fighting. And still needing a little help. 🌱
I know I posted about this before, so I'll keep it short and just add what I didn't say last time:
Over the years I've helped a lot of people get started selling carnivorous plants. Shared knowledge, shared contacts, shared time. Never once thought twice about it because that's just what you do for your community. I'd do it again tomorrow for any of you.
So yeah — it's a little humbling to be the one asking right now. But here I am.
Jake's Plants took a serious hit from storm damage on top of an herbicide drift that already cut us in half. I've reached out to folks across this hobby — big and small. Some came through immediately, no hesitation, and I will never forget that. Others went quiet. That's okay. People are busy. Life is complicated. I get it.
But I'm not done asking, because Jake's Plants isn't done.
If you can help with any of the following, my inbox is wide open:
🌿 Spare plants, cuttings, or discounted overstock
🔧 Greenhouse hardware (foggers, trays, fittings, anything)
💚 Direct support — every little bit genuinely matters
And if you can't help right now, sharing this post costs nothing and means everything.
Thank you for being my people. 💚
— Jacob, Jake's Plants
