After being a landscaper in the Bay area for over 25 years Malaina moved to Tuolumne County in the Summer of 2019.

With Columbia Nursery closing and Orchard supply being bought by Lowe’s, people were left with few choices to get quality plants and products for their home and garden. It was inside this gap that Joyful heart was created.
