Our Farm

Flowers are a charming byproduct of this farm, but the foundation Grow and Bestow was built on doesn’t consist of beautiful discs of sunlit petals waving in the wind, nor brightly, cheerful dotted moments. After years of quietly battling and hiding severe depression and anxiety, it is a plant that derailed my preparation to escape this earthly world. A single plant, self-seeded from a rotting and tossed out pumpkin, saved my life. Plants have since been the medicine that breathes life into everything I do.

Through sharing seeds, flowers, plants and our love of horticulture, we have discovered a need for community outreach with a focus on mental health. A portion of our farm’s profits go to seed libraries that afford individuals the opportunity to discover gardening as a means to address everyday struggles of mental illness.

While we recognize that growing may not be for everyone, we have yet to meet a person that didn’t light up at the gift of flowers. Your support of our business also helps us gift bouquets to special organizations each year.

“Be dedicated to change the way in which people see mental illness at all levels of society. If not for yourself, advocate for those who are struggling in silence.”
