About aHa!

Hey there! Thanks for clicking your way to aHa! Modern Living or AML for short. We thrive on those who enjoy exploring new territory, especially when it comes to gardening adventures with a modern flare. Before you get to exploring our site, let us fill you in on what kind of company you're about to do business with.

Why? Because we're a little different... and proud of it!

What We're All About

AML is not just about gardening as an occasional hobby. We're about environmental stewardship, community loyalty, global responsibility, and leading a healthy life. We believe in gardening because it unifies and permeates all of these things: gardening is good for our mental and physical health, provides us with fresh, nutritious food, and puts a little more green on this earth. Plus, gardening begets beauty. And who doesn't love to be surrounded by pretty things?

Our mission

• Help you discover your inner gardener. We want to arm you with the tools necessary to plant to your heart's content, as big or small as you'd like. Even just one little green thing in a pot is a garden.
• Provide you, through our blog, with innovative and concise information about decorating, cooking, entertaining, and more.
• Inspire you to see your front porch, backyard, balcony, patio, or windowsill in a new way. You don't need a sprawling piece of land to have a garden.
• Surround you with stylish, unique and modern products that you love. If you adore the feeling of being outside with the fragrance of lilacs on the breeze, we'll help you discover how to bring this feeling into your own home.
• Facilitate your movement towards living an earth-friendly life every day.
• Show you how to discover gardening resources in your own local community.
• Encourage you to find your own personal gardening oasis, whether that's through sharing a bountiful vegetable harvest with friends, or tending to a patch of flowers in solitude.

Why aHa! Was Created

aHa! Modern Living was founded by owner Jayme Jenkins in November 2008. Jayme became listless when trying to find stylish options for her home and garden. Let's face it: who wants their space to look like it just jumped out of an ad for a big-box store?? Or something from their Grandma's era? Not us! That's why Jayme has sought to find unique, modern and eco-friendly home and garden accessories for people who like to be just a little different.
