About Me

Welcome to Garden Hands Dahlias!

I'm Lindsay and I'm so glad you're here. Tucked away in the beautiful Wisconsin countryside, our small-scale dahlia farm is run with a lot of love, dirty hands, and passion.

Like many of you, my days are a juggling act. Between working a full-time job, keeping up with crazy kid schedules, caring for our small farm of animals, and (sometimes!) keeping up with house chores, the garden is my sanctuary. It keeps me grounded and brings me peace.

What started as a personal sanity-saver has bloomed into a community-wide mission of kindness.


Our Mission: Spreading Joy, One Bloom at a Time

Flowers have a unique power to speak when words fall short. They convey sympathy, celebrate joy, and offer quiet support.

In 2022, I served as an Ambassador with the Growing Kindness Project, an experience that forever changed how I view my garden. Since then, I've dedicated my summers to cutting and giving away fresh flower bouquets to neighbors, local organizations, and anyone needing a lift.

It is truly a team effort! Alongside my supportive family and our incredible volunteer "Kindness Crew," we have delivered over 750 bouquets to our local community.

In 2026, we are aiming for a major milestone: 1,000 donated bouquets.

I came up with a way to bring you along on my giving journey....enter our "Buy One, Gift One" (BOGO) model:

  • You Buy a Specially Marked Tuber: You get a premium, hand-inspected dahlia tuber to bring beauty to your own backyard.

  • We Gift a Bouquet: Your purchase doesn't just support my small family farm—it brings a smile to someone in our community who needs it most.
