"Cultivating Connection, One Garden at a Time"
At Home Grown Gardens, we believe in the power of sustainable, organic gardening to transform both the land and the people who cultivate it. Whether designing personalized garden spaces for homes or managing a farm dedicated to growing fresh, seasonal produce, we are passionate about bringing people closer to their food sources. From creating lush, productive home gardens to providing educational resources and support, our mission is to empower individuals and communities to reconnect with nature and grow their own food.
With a focus on organic practices, we offer a range of services, including custom garden design, professional installation, and ongoing maintenance, ensuring every garden is thriving and self-sustaining. We also provide hands-on education, supporting clients with the tools and knowledge needed to successfully grow their own food.
Our Mission
At Home Grown Gardens, our mission is to design, install, and maintain sustainable, organic gardens that foster a deeper connection between people and their food. We strive to educate individuals and communities about growing food at home and reducing dependency on commercial agriculture, empowering people to take control of their food sources while nurturing the environment.
The garden is a teacher—through its seasons, its struggles, and its triumphs, it reminds us of the patience and beauty in nurturing life.
Our Vision
Our vision is to create a future where more people grow their own food and embrace sustainable gardening practices. We aim to cultivate a community that understands the importance of food sovereignty, supports local food systems, and celebrates the connection between the land and the people who tend to it. Through our work, we hope to inspire individuals to grow with purpose and enjoy the fruits of their labor, fostering healthier, more resilient communities.
When we grow our own food, we don't just nourish our bodies—we cultivate a deeper connection to the earth and the communities we share it with.
About Pharmer Phil
Hi, I’m Pharmer Phil, the founder and owner of Home Grown Gardens. My journey into farming and gardening began over a decade ago when I first worked on farms in Hawaii, Australia, and California. My passion for growing food led me to dive deeper into organic and sustainable practices, which eventually brought me back to Tennessee, where I’ve been farming and working with clients to design and install personal gardens.
​
I had the privilege of working at Southall Farm & Inn in Franklin, Tennessee, where I gained valuable experience in farm operations and educational programming. My goal is to share the knowledge I’ve gained through my experiences so others can experience the joy and satisfaction that comes from growing your own food. I’m dedicated to creating a culture around teamwork, sustainability, and connection, both in the gardens I design and in the communities I serve.
When I’m not in the garden, I enjoy traveling, yoga, spending time with family, and exploring the outdoors. I’m excited to help you start your own gardening journey or grow your existing garden into something truly special.
