Josh Cook – Cooked Earth

September 11, 2024

When making a pot, my goal is to have it look like it was pulled right from the Earth itself. For these reasons, I seek natural textures and colors in my pottery that do not distract from the beauty of the plants.

Dam Thongphun – Green Touch Nursery

July 24, 2024

The hardest part about my small garden is eyeing a large specimen that I want to bring home, and then dealing with what needs to go and how to move things around to make space for it.

Regina Fernandez – Port Town Pottery

July 20, 2024

My mother introduced succulents to me when I was a child I still remember her words, "succulents can come in such cool shapes and many colors and are easy to grow."

Lisa Nix – Studio Fern Ceramics

July 15, 2024

My main sources of inspiration are from natural forms and gothic nostalgia. Growing up in the 90s. I’ve always loved the work of artist HR Giger, and grew up immersed in the dark world of Tim Burton.

What is it?

Atomkinder is a labor of love. Love for cacti and succulents. Love for the people that help grow, preserve, protect, and educate other people about these amazing plants.

Our goal is to help spread the word about this wonderful scene, and to highlight other people that are doing the same. Every week we will feature some of these growers, collectors, educators in our Spotlights section. Hopefully their insight into the hobby will help all of us grow.
