ABOUT REMRAF
“Cultivating farmers of the world, planting and preserving seeds of artistry, for a healthier mind, body and soul.”
REMRAF is an ananym for farmer. We are all farmers with seeds that we want to plant and see grow. The “seed” is an idea; it may be professional or personal.
It can grow into unlimited forms of artistic expression, a business; or, both. It may be a complete life changing event, eliminating the “weeds” to becoming healthier, physically and/or spiritually. One must be healthy to achieve your goals
REMRAF LLC was created to help promote artists and locally-owned small businesses by assisting with music, video, photography, marketing and promotion. We also have artists that we manage, affiliate businesses partners and our store.

Debbie Garay, Managing Partner
Debbie is a writer. Her 6th grade teacher knew it. Debbie did not see it. She liked to read and doodle. People told her that her doodles would be great textile designs. Again, Debbie did not see it. She came from a long line of artist, artisans and entrepreneurs; but thought that she missed out on the talent gene.
Debbie was always intrigued by marketing and advertising and the way it could influence a person. Whether she worked in a corporate or small business environment, her role was always to connect people, products and services. Her love for history and genealogy finds her exploring, She became an observer, a researcher and a networker; but she still did not write. It wasn’t until Shane got her to co-write that first song and start posting on social media that she realized she was a writer, the perfect creator for The Buzz.
Let’s plant some seeds and watch them grow!
