About Cedar House Living
Nestled in the quiet beauty of the Snoqualmie Valley just outside Seattle, Washington, Cedar House Living is where my love for flowers, herbs, and simple, seasonal living comes to life. I'm Jess Buttermore and my mission is to offer beautiful, insightful, and approachable educational resources—along with heartfelt, hands-on workshops—where flower and herb lovers of every age and experience level can gather, learn, and create with botanicals.
Through my books, blog, in-person gatherings, online tutorials, and shares on social media, I hope to inspire you to weave flowers and herbs into the fabric of your everyday life. Whether you’re tending a few pots on a porch or cultivating your own small garden, I want to encourage a mindful and meaningful connection to the plants around you—and help you share that joy with the people you love.
I’m an author, professional botanical photographer, blogger, devoted flower and herb gardener, wreath-making extraordinaire, and folk herbalist. Cedar House Living is my way of welcoming you into this world of beauty, creativity, and slow, intentional living—one bloom, one leaf, one quiet moment at a time.
