The Covenant
Gratitude • Stewardship • Legacy
“We have lived our lives at the edge of oceans around the world. It has been our backdrop, our playground, and our teacher. Oceanic Botanicals is born from a deep sense of gratitude for a world that has been good to us. We believe that to take from the shore, one must give back to the depth. Our mission is to ensure that the sanctuary which defined our lives remains vibrant for the generations that follow.”
Annie Meyer, 2025
To honor this pledge, Oceanic Botanicals commits 15% of all proceeds to the guardians of this coast:
Monterey Bay Sanctuary Foundation — Stewardship
O’Neill Sea Odyssey — Generational Education
Sunflower Star Laboratory — Restoration
Additionally, we maintain a standing annual contribution to the Monterey Bay Aquarium.

The Curator’s Eye
“Annie’s aesthetic range and discipline is globally cultivated. Over our fifteen years in Asia, she honed an innate ability to harmonize art with architecture while curating our family’s home sanctuaries ranging from the coastal apartments on Stanley Bay & Repulse Bay in Hong Kong to our Balinese style house and heritage ‘Black & White’ estate in Singapore. She understands that a specimen is not just an object, but a dialogue with the room and its inhabitants.”
Kevin Meyer
A Legacy of Service
Annie’s stewardship extends far beyond the ocean. While living abroad in 2003, Annie served as a founding board member of Caring for Cambodia, a pioneering NGO that ventured to rebuild schools and educational infrastructure destroyed during the Pol Pot regime. Today, there are 21 schools educating more than 6800 children. This deep-seated commitment to generational education is the DNA she brings to Oceanic Botanicals today—always ensuring that every piece of art we create funds the future of our planet.
