Get to Know Us
The Roots of our Work
Mother Nature's healing and nurturing energy is all around us - within every plant, every tree, every patch of moss. We have the ability to really feel this energy by engaging with the sights, sounds, and scents of nature. We believe that gardens and landscapes offer us profound senses of well-being, comfort, and peace and help connect us with these nurturing energies. It is through this connection that we can be in relationship with Nature, and move beyond being solely an observer. This is the foundation of Love Grows Here and the work we do in creating beautiful, enduring gardens that respect all living things and foster a deeper connection with Nature.
Our Style
Our commitment to native plants is at the core of our work, but that doesn't mean we're going to dig up every non-native plant around your home. We assess the role of non-native and naturalized plants within a garden or landscape and evaluate what is thriving, what may need to be relocated, and what no longer serves a balanced & healthy garden. We approach existing gardens with a mindset of restoration and rejuvenation, and by incorporating native plants we curate a landscape that is beautiful, resilient, and teeming with life.
Just as importantly, we want to know about your visions and what a dream garden is to you. How do you want these spaces to make you feel? Are you seeking retreat, meditation, a place of solace? Do you envision a wild, colorful, more untamed space that feels expansive & inspiring?

Meet Meg ~ LGH founder, gardener, nature lover
My love for nature began early in my life growing up in the Hudson Valley. That love and fascination grew even deeper when I discovered a life in the Teton Mountains of Wyoming.
My professional gardening journey began in 2013 and has taken me from the rugged Rockies back to the lush embrace of the Hudson Valley. I have been fortunate to work for and learn from highly knowledgeable and passionate horticulturists, gardeners, and landscape designers. These women were mentors and teachers, and empowered me to work towards starting my own business in 2022. Over the last 2 years I have gained immeasurable experience as a garden program educator for Autistic teens and adults . This experience has inspired me to expand on my consulting, coaching, and educational offerings. I consider myself an eternal student and I value lifelong learning and honing of my skills. I look forward to working with you and helping you grow a deeper relationship with Nature through the beauty & wonder of native plant life!
