About Us

Hi everyone! My name is Patricia and I am the proud owner of Legacy Gems, LLC. 

My daughter, Caylee, and I started this business to share our passion of exploring and learning about gems with you!

As a child, I had a love for rocks and was fascinated by the possible treasure that was under our feet! After retiring from the United States Air Force about 2 years ago, I was still trying to figure out what I wanted my second career to be. In early 2023, my husband took me to a gem mining sluice and that reignited the passion and love for rocks! Before I knew it, I was collecting again and teaching my children all about rocks, crystals, gems and fossils from all over the world. As a family, we continued to seek out new mining opportunities until one day Caylee asked if we could start a gem mining business of our own. She had grown to love rocks too and wanted to share our passion with our friends and family! So we created Legacy Gems, LLC where we specialize in our 1 Gallon Gem Mining Bucket. In the bucket, you’ll find over 4lbs of raw stones, crystals and fossils including at least 1 mystery item! The best part? You can now mine and sluice for your own treasure from the comfort of your home. As family-run company, we aim to inspire rock-hounds of all ages! From adults, kids, families and even collectors, our goal is to provide you with a fun and safe way to connect with nature!
