About Vine & Fig
It started with a longing for something slower.
As life became fuller and more demanding, there was a quiet pull toward something more grounded. Not a complete change, just a sense that there should be space to slow down, to step outside, and to feel more connected to what was right in front of you.
For Talan, that place was always the garden.
It was where things felt steady. Working with your hands brought a kind of clarity that’s hard to explain. And it wasn’t something new. It had always been there, in the way her mom, Poette, tended a space, and in the generations before them.
There was always something growing. There was always care behind it. And there was a quiet kind of beauty in simply being part of that process.
Over time, it became clear that it wasn’t just something to hold onto personally. It was something to share.
A garden can change the way a home feels.
What began as a shared love for gardening slowly became something more intentional.
Not just creating something beautiful, but shaping a space that draws you in. A space that becomes part of your everyday life in a way that feels natural and unforced.
Most people already feel that desire. They want something that feels personal. Something that fits their home and their life. Something that doesn’t feel copied or expected.
They just don’t always know how to get there.
What we create is meant to be lived in.
Talan and Poette approach each project as a garden first. There’s an art to it, but there’s also a rhythm that comes with being in it day to day.
Part of the process is helping you step into that rhythm.
Not just handing something off, but making sure you feel comfortable with it, so you can continue to enjoy it long after the work is done.
The spaces feel thoughtful, but never overdone.
Things feel relaxed, but still considered. There’s structure, but it doesn’t feel rigid.
The materials are simple and honest. Wood, stone, water. Elements that already belong to the environment rather than competing with it.
Nothing is added just to make a statement. Everything is there for a reason, and it settles into the space in a way that feels right.
There’s something deeper behind the name.
Vine & Fig comes from Micah 4:4.
It’s a picture of sitting under your own vine and fig tree, at peace, with nothing to fear.
That idea has quietly shaped the heart behind this business from the beginning.
Not something that needs to be explained loudly, but something that guides the work in a steady way. A reminder that creating a garden is more than a project. It’s a way of making space for something meaningful in the middle of everyday life.
