Owned and operated by Kali Yanke, Kali.co Plants is an incredible booth to visit for all you budding plant parents.
With over 2,500 plants in stock, Yanke has something for everyone. Each of her plants are propagated and grown using a semi-hydroponic method and fed only the finest nutrients from her own, all-natural plant-care line.
Each plant comes housed in an adorable pot or macramé pot created in collaboration with local artists, making them a great gift for a friend, family member or yourself and an even better way to support local.
