Founder Carolyn Meeker Wubbenhorst began growing the roots of Wubby Designs at the age of 6, when she became an apprentice to her father—a horticulturist, certified tree expert, and artist—in the gardens he tended near their home in New Jersey. At this early age, she learned the art of hand pruning trees, and planting flowers and shrubs, plus the importance of family and collaboration.
As an adult, and under the tutelage of Martha Stewart Living, Carolyn learned first-hand the importance of good design and getting it right the first time, ensuring that every Wubby Designs project is practical to your lifestyle (while being pretty, too, of course). This is also where she learned how to grow a business and how to cultivate the future using only her creativity and a respect for the beauty of the environment. This understanding of the natural world combined with a love of design and all things creative is what sets Wubby Designs apart.
