Fenhaven, Gardening

Now offering garden design services!

Emily stands in a garden she planned

“I really want to start a garden this year, but I don’t know where to start!”

“I love getting my hands dirty, but I hate planning.”

“I want to quit dabbling and really grow enough food to get me through the winter this year. What’s the best use of the space I have?”

If any of these sound like you, take advantage of my 25+ years of gardening experience, my excess of executive function, and my passion for introducing people to gardening in a non-overwhelming way!

See my garden planning service page for more details or contact me to start planning your garden today!

Fenhaven Teas Available at Argus!

You can now find a selection of Fenhaven teas at Argus Farm Stop’s locations in Ann Arbor, Michigan! Loose-leaf teas are available at the Liberty and Packard markets, and soon the Packard Café may also have brewed tea.

The teas at Argus are especially awesome because they highlight Michigan-grown herbs from Fenhaven, Jacob’s Fresh Farm, and Golden Hour Herb Farm.

If there is a variety you’d like to see stocked at Argus, please let me or the manager know and I will try to add it to the selection! And you can always order from my online tea store.

Embrace the moon with Moonwood Tea!

Fenhaven’s newest tea is a feast for the eyes as well as the nose and tastebuds! Moonwood tea starts off a deep aquamarine and changes to intense purple when lemon or lime juice is added. With notes of clove and ginger, it’s a perfect brew for your next new moon celebration, eclipse-watching party (like the lunar eclipse March 13-14, 2025!), or any night that needs a little added delight.

You can order Moonwood Tea here, or look for it soon at Agricole in Chelsea, Michigan.
