Diana Witcher and Cari Witcher are the cofounders of Aquarian Gardens. They have gardened professionally in Wisconsin and Minnesota since 1993. After an extended apprenticeship with Liz Heywood and Kathy Ruggles of Pasque Nursery and Garden Design, they opened Aquarian Gardens in 2000.

Specializing in perennial flower gardens, Aquarian Gardens uses no chemical fertilizers or pesticides. All soil additives are organic and not harmful to children or pets. Plant material is grown organically and locally whenever possible. 1% of profits are donated to environmental organizations and the organization’s carbon footprint is offset annually through Native Energy.
