CO-FOUNDER

Andrew Morris, owner and operator of Savannah Hydroponics & Organics (SH&O), is a self-taught gardener who loves to share his passion for good living with others. Andrew opened SH&O in January 2009 to fill the need for a local source of specialty gardening and hydroponic supplies here in the Low-country.

Born and raised in southern California where he was exposed to gardening, recycling, and composting at an early age, he was taught the benefits of sustainable living. Leaving So-Cal for the mountains of Lake Tahoe as a young adult, his love for growing plants truly emerged. With snow on the ground up to eight months of the year, he started using lighting and hydroponic systems to grow plants year round indoors.

After leaving California, he lived in Hawaii for almost two years, where, between his jobs as a boat captain, he helped his friends with a gardening store in Maui. He found his way to the Low-country via Harbor Town Marina after a period of living and working on yachts.

Growing plants has been the primary focus of Andrew’s personal and professional interests for more than a decade. Since opening SH&O, Andrew has participated in many community events in and around Beaufort and Chatham Counties.

In his free time, you can find him living the good life with his wife, Kelly, and sons, Jack and Cooper.

CO-FOUNDER

After 15 years in corporate marketing and institutional communications, Kelly Morris made the bold leap into entrepreneurship—trading deadlines for dirt and boardrooms for bloom fields. As a small-scale food producer, culinary educator, and modern homesteader, she now leads Savannah Hydroponics & Organics and Bloom Flower Farm in Garden City, Georgia.

Kelly helps others reconnect with their food, their roots, and their purpose—offering tools, education, and inspiration for living more sustainably and joyfully. Whether she’s arranging freshly cut, locally grown organic flowers, making a seasonal meal from market finds, or teaching others how to grow their own food, Kelly shows that thriving doesn’t require perfect conditions—just the courage to bloom where you’re planted.
