Our Story

About Glenda

It would be rude to start with introducing anyone other than Glenda - our plant trailer! Glenda is a 1975 Mini Glen, a trailer that originated from the UK many years ago. After years of making memories on the road, we found Glenda for sale online and converted her into a mobile plant shop / rental studio.

About Kate + Rally and Roots

Okay -- real human here now. Hi, I'm Kate! From small Etsy store to full-on mobile plant shop, Rally and Roots has been a long time dream come true.

In 2017 I opened an Etsy shop called Bolt & Rally. For three years we've sold hand painted / hand stamped planters online and have been frequently seen at markets and pop-ups around Ontario. 

After purchasing Glenda in March 2020, our vision of growing the business into a mobile plant shop started to flourish. 

Up until March 2020 (queue: global pandemic), I was working both for my online shop, and also as a full-time flight attendant for a Canadian Airline. I'm thrilled to be growing R+R full time now, and cannot wait for where this road takes us!

Thank you for coming along for the ride and watching us grow. <3
