Figs!!​​​​​​​​

There are so many cool things about these trees. They grow well in our N.C. climate, they were one of the first plants cultivated by humans, they’re versatile (cookies, preserves, dried), and prolific!​​​​​​​​

We started planting milkweed years ago to help monarchs have a source of food. We’ll let the seed pods grow so they’ll reseed to provide food for next year’s monarchs. ​​​​​​​​
​​​​​​​​
If you’re a fellow Charlottean looking to grow milkweed, we have some for you! It’s good to note to stay away from planting the tropical type (yellow orange red). Plant the more native species of milkweed - butterflyweed (Asclepias tuberosa), aquatic milkweed, (Asclepias perennis) and swamp milkweed (Asclepias incarnata). ​​​​​​​​

These coneflowers are a second core perennial in our garden. Like the Black-eyed Susans, these flowers easily reseed and we have many volunteers each year. ​​​​​​​​
​​​​​​​​
An added benefit is that the gold finches love the seeds and flock to the garden, so we get quite a gold finch show!​​​​​​​​

Are you a hydrangea fan? Hydrangeas are some of those flowers that are adored and deplored. We tend to like the lacecaps better than the mopheads, but this color is just so pretty.​​​​​​​​

Our Story

Soulshine Organics was started by four friends and admitted gardening geeks in 2012. We use all-organic methods to grow our fruits and vegetables. We also raise pet chickens and bees (although we’re still working on naming all of our pet bees).

Soulshine Organics is located in the Belmont neighborhood (beside the Plaza Midwood neighborhood, less than 2 miles outside of uptown Charlotte)
