A "Herstory" of Seeds of Light  as told by Juniper Healy who Started the Business in 1984


As a child, I always loved crafts - sewing, macramé, and of course, beadwork. I still have the first necklace I made as a child—apple seeds strung with macramé. The jewelry and bead business that became Seeds of Light was a natural progression of my creative interests...

Continuing History of Seeds of Light by Glenna

I came on board at the store in Blacksburg in 2004. Juniper offered me the perfect chance to work a part-time job while I was in college at Virginia Tech. My daughter and I had been customers of the Roanoke store since it opened in 1995, so working at the store was a delight! I moved back to Roanoke after college and started working in that store in 2005. In March of 2007, I purchased Seeds of Light from Juniper! She stayed on for nearly 2 years, teaching me the business and showing me the ropes. In summer 2009, Juniper earned her Reflexology License and is persuing her interest in natural healing. She still comes to the Roanoke Store to do reflexology sessions. 

In September, 2009, we celebrated 25 years of business! We continue to offer the same products we always have and have expanded to include many majickal items, a larger book selection, clothes, and now offer many types of readings.
