Meet the Owners
Erin Autio and Sarah Moylan are sisters who have been playing in the garden for as long as they can remember. Together, they form the partnership that is Gaia's Gardens. These days they make their homes a short walk from each other in the town of New Hamburg, Ontario.
A Bit About Gaia
Gaia's Gardens is an unusual name and provokes many questions from our friends and customers alike. Gaia (guy-yuh) originates from early Greek mythology. Gaia is the earth goddess from which most other gods originated. A loose translation would be the term mother earth. The term Gaia was revived in the 1960's when James Lovelock published his Gaia Hypothesis. In this theory, Lovelock describes the whole earth as one living system.
"Life forms of the earth in their diversity coevolve and contribute interactively to produce and sustain the optimal conditions for the growth and prosperity not of themselves, but of the larger whole, Gaia."
- James Lovelock
