We believe that every person facing breast cancer treatment deserves a Backyard Breastie™

The seed of the business plan started when Beverly saw the breast cancer ribbon on a bench in Britany’s backyard. Many cancer retreats and support meetings later Britany came up with the idea for Backyard Breasties™. 

[Britany] A Backyard Breastie™ is a person who has been diagnosed with breast caner but isn’t in the trenches of treatment anymore. They’re blooming into the beautiful new versions of themselves after their own cancer experiences and want to share their hope, support, wisdom, garden guidance and laughter. 

They volunteer their time and skills to help with at home plant and garden needs while a new or meta Breastie undergoes their surgeries and/or treatments. 

We launched in 2024 as an official California 501(c)(3) in the hopes that more gardeners can have more hope in their corner.
