Helping florists, flower-lovers, and first-time gardeners grow something meaningful.

Hi, I’m Lauren Mathews, owner and Head Gardener at Bright Seed Gardens. I’ve enjoyed 15 years so far as a deeply curious backyard gardener and since 2020 have been growing healthy and organically started seedlings for other home growers, specializing in vegetables, herbs, specialty cut flowers and edible perennials.

Whether you’re a florist looking for fresh, local blooms, a home gardener eager to try your hand at tomatoes, or someone simply craving a deeper connection to your food and flowers—I’m so glad you’re here. Bright Seed Gardens is a space to learn, connect, and grow something meaningful, together.
