Hi, I'm Lyn! I thought I knew gardens. I grew up in them - lush lawns, bursting borders, flowers that seemed to bloom just for us (thanks, Mum). But after a house renovation left my garden flattened to bare soil, I realised I had no idea where to start.
Armed with my consulting habits, I reached for Excel and PowerPoint. Big mistake. Planning a garden that actually works - in your space, with your sunlight, soil, and season - was harder than I expected. Nothing out there seemed to guide me without sending me into information overload.
Gardening should be enjoyable, not intimidating.
So… I built DearGarden.

Clarity, confidence, and a little more joy.
We value curiosity, patience, and letting go of the guilt. We believe plants (and people) thrive with a little more encouragement and a lot less stress.
