THE FACE BEHIND INNER GARDEN
Inner Garden is my way of sharing this connection with my community, inviting you to explore the world around us and within us.
A SMALL BUSINESS THAT CENTERS AROUND…
Nature, kitchen medicine, and connection play in the human experience.
Our mission is to inspire people to view food as medicine, to connect with nature as a pillar of wellness, and to lovingly tend to their inner world like they would a garden. Our founder strives to weave her North Indian heritage, traditional healing modalities, and ancestral wisdom into modern day living through Inner Garden Wellness’ offerings.
It all started with a seed of self-healing and a desire to reconnect with nature…
a little about me:
Chef, herbalist, naturalist, and postpartum doula based in Southern California. I founded Inner Garden as a space to share my love for nature, food, and wellness. Through Inner Garden, I offer educational workshops, private chef services, boutique catering experiences, plant walks, and recipe development for both individuals and brands. I’m also the Co-Founder of Dirt Girls, an initiative dedicated to bridging the gap between urban food waste and sustainable agriculture. My mission is to help people connect with the Earth and promote a more localized food system through herbalism and the food we share.
from healing myself to helping others
Helping people connect with the Earth through food and herbs feels like my true purpose in life. Every plate I serve, recipe I develop, workshop I teach, and event I host teaches me how to be a better human. I struggled with my mental and physical health throughout my teenage and young adult years. After years of using various modalities to help myself heal, I kept coming back to 2 basic necessities: food and nature. I also realized that there is no point in taking care of myself if I’m not thinking about the wellbeing of those around me, and the planet. That is when I started Inner Garden— my mission being to inspire people to tend their own inner gardens through Earth, body, and spirit care.

BTS OF MY LIFE
WHEN I’M NOT on the job…
AN EXPLORER AT HEART
I’m always eager to dive into new experiences and challenges. I’ve been in a submarine twice, traveled to over 20 countries, and even spent a few years living in India. Obsessed with the Mediterranean’s food, culture, and history, I draw inspiration from everywhere I go. Some of my proudest achievements include developing a line of pickle brine flavors for a celebrity’s comedy club, cooking a farm-to-table dinner for Organic Olivia’s community, and helping to create a program on California native plants and herbalism.
Every experience adds a new layer to my work, reminding me that there’s always more to learn, share, and savor. Over the years, I’ve had the joy of working with 30 meal prep clients, catering over 25 private events, and hosting 8 community dinners that bring people together around nourishing, intentional meals. Leading 15+ herbalism workshops and plant walks, and recently enrolling 45 students in my fall 2023 program, I aim to inspire deeper connections to nature, nourishment, and the simple pleasures that ground us in our everyday lives.
