We are a female-owned small business based out of Tampa, Florida. We believe that plants can spread joy, help with depression and anxiety, and help brighten spirits, even in the darkest of times. These are some of the reasons we started this business, in 2020, during a global pandemic. We knew it was time to pursue this dream and help share our passion with the world. We have both worked as bartenders and servers for as long as we can remember. With our future’s in the hospitality industry being so uncertain, we decided it was time to start this dream that’s been years in the making. As our friendship and families grew, we knew we wanted to do something that would be completely ours, built by us, from the ground up. We wanted to do something that inspired us, that made us learn new things about ourselves, and about how to do our part in making the world a better place. We wanted to leave something of value and love behind for our families. We wanted to be ‘greener’ and more conscious of our carbon footprint. We wanted to create a brand that represents our personal values. That’s how Into The Pot was born. We strongly support body positivity and diversity, helping overcome mental illness, and contributing to saving the planet. Plants and people come in all shapes, sizes and colors, and that is what inspired us to start the naked photo gallery. (You can view these photos on our website or instagram @intothepotfl ). We wanted to showcase the beauty of our plants and of all the beautiful, different, creative and wonderful people in our lives. People that were so willing to support us that they literally took the clothes off their backs for us. Naked gardening is about embracing who you are and loving yourself, being comfortable and empowered in your own skin. It’s about breaking the stigma that naked equals sexualized. We couldn’t be happier to be doing this together, supporting and encouraging each other through all of the ups, downs, and learning curves. We are so grateful to the amazing community of people we have supporting us. We hope you will become part of that community and continue to grow with us.
