Paige Tailyn is an Atlanta-based plant educator, enthusiast, and founder of Blossom Effect, a platform she created in honor of her grandmother to uplift Black and brown communities through accessible houseplant education. Through Blossom Effect, she launched the Blossom Effect Business Fund (Micro Grant Program) and the LGBTQ+ & BIPOC Plant Directory, initiatives supporting and spotlighting underrepresented plant entrepreneurs. Her work centers on cultural connection, growth, and community care, nurturing people as intentionally as she nurtures plants.

“Blossom Effect is my dedication to equality and meaningful change, reflecting my values as a Black, queer woman.” - Paige Tailyn
