Our Story
Green Thumb Haven was born from a shared passion for gardening and a desire to create a community where gardeners of all experience levels could learn, share, and grow together.
Founded in 2018 by a group of gardening enthusiasts with diverse backgrounds in horticulture, landscape design, and environmental science, our blog has grown into a trusted resource for gardeners worldwide.
We believe that gardening is more than just a hobby—it's a way to connect with nature, promote sustainability, and create beauty in our everyday lives. Through our articles, guides, and community engagement, we aim to make gardening accessible to everyone, regardless of their space, resources, or experience.
Whether you're tending to a windowsill herb garden in a city apartment or managing acres of landscaped grounds, Green Thumb Haven is here to support your gardening journey with reliable information, creative inspiration, and practical advice.
