About Happy in the Dirt
Hi, I'm Melissa!
I am a small-scale dahlia and cut flower grower in Richfield, Minnesota, and I have been gardening since 2004. From pollinator-friendly plants to shade plants, vegetables to cut flowers, gardening of all kinds is my passion. I use environment- and pollinator-friendly growing practices, such as companion planting, pesticide-free pest control, and organic fertilizers.
Several years ago I started growing dahlias and quickly became obsessed! My collection keeps growing every year! I grow dahlias to create beautiful bouquets and to show at the local Minnesota Dahlia Society shows. Feel free to reach out to me with questions - I love to talk about dahlias (or really any kind of gardening)!
Award-winning Dahlias
