Hi, I’m Lindsey
I'm a mother to a daughter, and an artist, researcher and project manager turned garden designer. Before founding Native Daughter Gardens, I ran a community garden in Brooklyn, helped win a $300,000 grant to bring water to it, and lobbied to fund GrowNYC there for the first time.
I choose native plants as a way to push back against habitat loss and to bring life back to our yards, one garden at a time.
Wherever you live, I'll get to know your yard through photos and a video walkthrough, then design a garden with plants that belong in your region.
