juniper-beans FLORA — A legume. The fruit of a hardy vine, juniper-beans are purple seeds relatively the size of a peach pit and vaguely shaped like a bean. Their outer shell is a tough, leathery substance that must be soaked in water in order to be removed. Once the shell is removed, juniper-beans can be cooked, roasted, or eaten raw. Their flavor is slightly sweet, comparable to sweet potatoes. Common lore among the → folken is that juniper-beans are good luck and promote prosperity and fertility. Juniper-beans are the object of the new year festival tradition of → husking.

I am a story teller. The goal of a story is to move people in some way. Whether with video, words or images and graphics, my end goal is always to tell a good story. When your story is told successfully, it expresses your strengths and the unique way in which you fill a need or want. With every service I offer, I seek to answer this question: what is the best way to tell this story? Showing always beats telling.
