About Our Name
Isla’s Garden Seeds
Isla (pronounced Eye-Luh) is the youngest in our family. We named our company after her because she is the anchor for the six of us, filling our home with a playful, vibrant, colorful joy, akin to a garden. If you’ve purchased seeds since the formation of our business in 2017, you may have received a rare packet with her photo on the front.
