Field Archive Pack 001

The first field pack of The Green Grimoire.

First Seeds is the opening botanical card collection of The Green Grimoire.

Created as the first practical field pack, it was designed to be carried into the garden, brought to workshops, kept beside a windowsill, and returned to throughout the season.

Part archive.

Part planting companion.

Part invitation.

The first pack was assembled with usefulness in mind—plants chosen not only for beauty, but for their ability to be planted, tended, and noticed across many kinds of spaces.

A balcony.

A backyard bed.

A container by the door.

A shared garden plot.

A windowsill with enough light to begin.

The First Seeds

Radish

Quick-growing and direct.

A first invitation into planting, patience, and noticing change close to the soil.

Looseleaf Lettuce

A plant of repetition and return.

Harvested slowly, tended often, and gathered leaf by leaf.

Nasturtium

A bridge between garden, pollinator, and kitchen.

Bright, edible, and generous in the way it grows.

Basil

A plant carried through scent and memory.

Kept close to the kitchen, the windowsill, and the season.

Calendula

A flower of warmth and return.

Pollinator-friendly, medicinally storied, and gathered through bloom after bloom.

Dwarf Sunflower

The anchoring plant of the first pack.

Held for pollinators, birds, seed, sunlight, and the memory of summer.

What each card holds

Each Field Archive card is designed as both an object and a record.

Each may include botanical illustration, plant identity, ecological notes, seasonal observation prompts, simple care guidance, a field passport mark, and a threshold into the Seed Cabinet.

Designed to be revisited over time.

Used in gardens, workshops, notebooks, and quiet observation.

Built for gathering

Field Archive Pack 001 was developed as the first workshop-ready edition of The Green Grimoire.

Each pack is designed to support shared gatherings around planting, observation, seed saving, and seasonal learning.

Participants may receive a card, plant alongside it, make notes through the season, and return with what they notice over time.

A successful card is not only collected.

It is carried home.

Planted.

Observed.

Remembered.

Returned to.

The beginning of the archive

This marks the beginning of the Field Archive—

the first release in a growing collection of botanical cards, seasonal studies, and future archive editions still to come.

A beginning held in the hand.

Small enough to carry.

Open enough to continue with the season.
