Old Growth Sponsor Profiles
I invite organizations that share the values championed here to sponsor my independent botany research as towering Old Growth Giants of the ecosystem.
Many people who follow my work prioritize family-owned, local, and mission-driven businesses. My website hosts live links and engaging sponsor profiles here. Old Growth Giants will also receive public acknowledgment and thanks on my social media channels. Contact Samantha with interest, questions, and to coordinate the sponsor profile.

Headless Mumby Brewing
Cheers to the Headless Mumby team for supporting my expedition to Antarctica and science in the greater Olympia community.
I love Headless Mumby! Their Dark Czech is my favorite beer that they produce and it's truly a treat. Their taproom feels like walking into warm honey -- everything is golden and sweet. If you like beer and are near Olympia, don't miss this micro-micro-brew gem!
