In this inspiring feature from Dalton, Georgia, The Farm Monitor introduces us to Sam Brown, the owner of Fiddleheads Garden Center.
Brown’s journey into horticulture began with a marigold and his grandmother’s love for gardening. He shares how the joy of gardening and strong local ties have shaped his success.
What started as childhood curiosity blossomed into a lifelong passion and eventually, a full-fledged garden center business rooted in local plants, community connections, and resilience.
From losing his job in 2011 to launching and expanding Fiddleheads into a go-to destination for plants and garden lovers, Sam shares how the joy of gardening, strong local ties, and a deep commitment to Georgia growers have shaped his success. A story about plants, people, and purpose—don’t miss this feel-good journey from backyard roots to blooming success.
Fiddleheads Garden Center also has a butterfly house that’s open from early May through the end of September.
