It started with two sisters…
Meet our founders, Sara & Carie
Sara Childers and Carie Nedley grew up in the Portland area in a home full of plants and gardening.
During weekly sisters nights, Carie and Sara dreamed up Potted In Portland as a way to help everyone have houseplants that thrive. Selling succulent arrangements at their location gift shop grew into helping people around the city design plantscapes and care for their plants.
In 2020, they opened their neighborhood plant shop on a vibrant block of SE Clinton full of local businesses. Now, the Potted in Portland dream continues. The two shop is full of interior houseplants, gifts and pottery, and their staff of plant care specialists help them care for 50+ businesses and growing around the Portland Metro area.

“Sara and Carie helped facilitate a VERY large order for us and could not have done a more spectacular job. During the holidays, no less! These women are absolute professionals and go above and beyond. The shop is so well put together, the plants and products are beautiful, I just can't say enough great things about this place.”

“Beautiful selection of plants and plant accessories/plant care items. The person working in the shop was very knowledgeable and happy to help me find a plant that would be happy in my home. Thank you!”
