About

Welcome to Blackburn Gardens!

My name is Laura, and I have loved dirt and the things that grow in it since childhood. Blackburn Gardens is the fulfillment of a life-long dream to grow beautiful things and share them with my community. I love meeting my neighbors as they stop by for a last-minute bundle of flowers for the dinner table or a fresh bouquet for their teacher on the first day of school. Our little bit of land is just 3/4 of an acre on the edge of old-town Mount Vernon, but it is where the magic happens. Please visit my roadside flower cart—I can’t wait to meet you!
