Hortiki Says... Welcome!

Victoria LeBeaux founder of Hortiki Plants. An organic gardening small business

Hortiki is excited to help you grow!



Hi there! I'm Dr. Victoria LeBeaux. Founder of Hortiki Plants.

I created Hortiki in 2017 after spending nearly 20 years working in agriculture and realizing how hard it was to find sustainable, accessible resources—even with insider knowledge. I knew families, educators, and professionals needed better tools to grow—both literally and figuratively.


Today, Hortiki is expanding beyond our roots in sustainable gardening. We're expanding our portfolio to serve you in exciting new ways—from media that makes science accessible, to training that transforms how you work and lead. Our mission remains the same: helping you grow.

Learn more below and please don't hesitate to reach out if there's anything else you'd like to know.

Plant Love! 🌿💚

Hortiki Plants Kids Garden Kits

You want your kids to love learning, connect with nature, and develop confidence through hands-on experiences. And you want to do it in an earth-friendly way.

Our eco-friendly garden kits make it simple. Every kit comes with USDA Certified Organic seeds, plastic-free materials, and STEM-based learning resources that turn curiosity into discovery. Whether you're a parent, teacher, or youth organization, we've designed everything you need to help young gardeners plant, learn, and thrive.

We source the most sustainable materials we can find: minimal plastic, plant-based alternatives, recycled papers with vegetable-based inks, and recycled packaging. We prioritize local sourcing and work with trustworthy organizations that share our values. When you choose Hortiki, you're choosing a business that puts both kids and the planet first.

From fun blogs to classroom guides, we're here to make gardening exciting and accessible for all.
