SkxrriOriginally named Onondaga Earth Cards during development, Natures Hand started as on overtime opportunity and passion project in 2025 at my previous employer Onondaga Earth Corps. OEC is an urban forestry and environmental conservation focused non-profit organization dedicated to the personal and professional development of youth and Young adults in the Syracuse NY area.
Each card in this deck has a frontal plant illustration, scientific and common name, and QR link on the back to a gallery with short identification blurbs for each on my personal portfolio website. Each suit is divided into a different category: Natives, Invasives, Naturalized, and Undesirables, color coded and with unique suit symbols. It is a full playing card and poker deck that can be used to play the same games as any standard deck.
Disclaimer: Online plant ID gallery is still under construction but QR codes are fully functional.
