Meadowscaping Makes It Better
About us
American Meadows wants to redefine the world’s understanding of a meadow. When we look out over turf, dirt or concrete we see nothing less than glorious possibilities. Where others may see an urban apartment’s patio, we see a pollinator pit stop for migrating wildlife. Where others may see a suburban lawn, we see opportunity for a cut flower garden. Where others may see a well-manicured country estate, we see a textural wildflower tapestry. Because when we meadowscape, we dig in. We become a force of good, and an advocate for pollinators and the environment, a friend to the community that brings beauty into the lives of everyone who passes by. We transform not only the land – we transform our lives – we nurture our own well-being and cultivate change.

Cultivating common purpose and mutual support among a hybrid workforce requires individuals who truly know and care for one another. That's one of the reasons why our nationwide team gathers at HQ in Shelburne, VT, three times a year. Our “Build Weeks” focus not only on building the business but also on building our community. Build Week Summer 2024 included a peony tour at Shelburne Farms, a tailgate barbecue with putt-putt golf, and a show-stopping performance from our resident bagpiping business analyst. #MeadowscapingMakesItBetter #DoingGoodThroughGardening

🌟 Celebrating Success Together! 🌟 A heartfelt THANK YOU to our incredible warehouse staff in Fairfax, VT, greenhouse staff in Clinton, UT, and to the remote Customer Service team for another successful spring season! 🌻 It was a BUSY season! We hired 60 seasonal staff members, shipped an impressive 165,000 orders, and handled over 45,000 customer inquiries with care and expertise. This season we offered some special perks: 👟 We partnered with Fleet Feet in Layton, UT & Essex Jct., VT to ensure our warehouse & greenhouse staff had excellent footwear. 👍 We provided on-site massages to help our team relax and rejuvenate. 🍪 We sent treats from Vermont Cookie Love to our dedicated Customer Service staff to say, "Thanks!" We truly appreciate all your hard work, dedication, and unwavering commitment. 🙌✨ #GrowWithUs #WelcomeToTheMeadowverse #PlantYourCareerHere #AmericanMeadows #HighCountryGardens

"Research has found that gardening in the front yard, where the fruits of your labor are more visible, may foster social connections and better mental health". Have you noticed anything special about the impact of front yard gardening on your neighborhood or your own well-being? Share your experiences and thoughts below! 👇 #MeadowcapingMakesItBetter Thanks to Jill Litt for her expertise and dedication.
I recently spoke with Richard Sima of the Washington Post on the science linking gardening and mental health and how #aestheticengagement and #socialconnection, as part of the garden experience, can activate changes in health and wellbeing. “It’s the taste, the texture, the sensation … wind on your face and your hair, just feeling the elements of nature. And it helps people feel alive...,” said Jill Litt, a senior researcher at the Barcelona Institute for Global Health. “These are things that are very therapeutic.” And from my colleague Dr Jonathan Kingsley, “I feel like it’s just about bringing the pieces back together of what makes us human.” American Cancer Society University of Colorado Boulder Barcelona Institute for Global Health (ISGlobal) Denver Urban Gardens Read more here 👇
