Hi there!

 

Thank you for stopping by and taking a moment to read our story. 

​

We are Ruby and Michael, the faces, hands, creatives and dreamers behind Foragers' Patch. Oh, and of course, our little Miniature Schnauzer, Olive! She is always by our side and never misses out on anything. 

​

We met at university while studying performance in classical music on the clarinet. While we still love our music and regularly perform, we have grown a love for all things food, flowers, beautiful gardens, homemade drinks, preserves and styling. 

 

This all kicked off after buying our first house. The backyard was a complete blank slate to work with. After removing some shrubs, palm trees and even a fish pond from the lawn, we got to work creating a garden for flowers and food. We dug garden beds, painted the fence, installed beautiful rust-look edging and have planted a mix of food and cottage-like perennials. We have learnt, and continue to learn so much from the garden and are really passionate about living a healthy and sustainable lifestyle.  

Foragers' Patch is our patch where we grow, create and dream big. We have big dreams of owning a large property and expanding on everything we already do and more. We dream of large open spaces, fresh food, flower fields, beautiful gardens and a Foragers' Cottage to host beautiful, relaxing stays; allowing others to experience the kind of lifestyle we enjoy. 

​

Right here, you will see updates from our patch, the kitchen and home. You will find inspiration for your own garden, seasonal cooking and creative projects.
