I co-designed and did photography for Nature's Bounty Greeting Cards, a line of cards highlighting local farmers and artisans and the flowers and goods they produce. A portion of the proceeds benefited the St. Louis Area Foodbank. They were found in several gift shops and grocery stores around St. Louis (including Straub's and the Missouri History Museum.)
I also produced and maintained the website (naturesbountycards.com).
