About Me

Franklin Ingalls

Franklin Ingalls
I’ve always had a green thumb—whether it was sneaking seeds from my grandpa’s garden as a kid or turning a patch of dirt behind our apartment into a jungle of herbs and tomatoes. There’s something about watching plants grow that feels like magic, especially when you’re the one holding the watering can.
