Hi! My name is Forrest, when I am not obsessing over plants I am an elementary special education teacher. When the Coronavirus started and we went to distance learning, all students were encouraged to have a ‘perseverance project’. My perseverance project was a vegetable garden in our backyard, lots of bags of dirt later.. here we are! Over the last year, we've eaten lots of basil & tomatoes and have collected even more house plants!

​

Starting Lost in the Forrest has allowed me to take two things I love, plants and teaching, and put them together. Helping people learn about plants has turned into one of my favorite things. I have found that adding plants to my home has literally and figuratively added so much life to my life. I hope I can add some life to your home.​

When I am not at school or caring for plants I am either singing in choir, doing projects at home, watching Star Wars, or entertaining our two animals (Gordy the Golden and Nellie the sassy cat). Thank you so much for your support, you are all turning my dream into a reality!
