A monthly note — full of seasonal inspiration, favorite projects, and quiet thoughts.
Hi, I’m Madalyn — a garden coach, writer, and tired-but-happy mom of five, learning as I go. I didn’t grow up gardening, but something in me kept tugging toward the dirt. Over time, one garden turned into a whole life built around growing things — plants, children, ideas, beauty. Among the Flowers is my quiet offering to the world — a space to share what I’ve learned (and what I’m still figuring out) about making a home that’s full of life — not perfect, but meaningful. You’ll find garden advice, family systems that sometimes work, and little glimpses into a life that’s rooted in both chaos and care.
Whether you're starting your very first garden or rethinking an existing space, I offer practical, personalized support rooted in beauty and purpose. Let’s bring your garden dreams to life — one step at a time.
From seed-starting tutorials to family rhythms and seasonal musings, the blog is a collection of everything I’m learning and loving — shared in real time, with muddy hands and an open heart.
A curated collection of free printables, resources, and (soon) ebooks — all designed to help you grow your garden, your home, and your sense of rooted joy.
