the owner & founder: Tayler Stanton
Hello & welcome! I started As Things Bloom with the goal to bring eco-conscious and hands-on gardening care to the outdoor spaces of Central Illinois. What began as a personal commitment to working with nature & restoration grew into a business built on pioneer practices, chemical-free methods, & non-invasive approaches. I believe healthy landscapes don’t come from control, but from understanding, patience, & intentional care.
The support I have received servicing Central Illinois has made this work possible, and I am honored to care for the spaces that matter to you.
“The success of our business is only reflected by the success of the
community we serve.”
gardening is for everyone.
We believe that gardening is for everyone. We’ve helped people of many backgrounds/property types obtain their own garden spaces, grow their own food, or simply create their own plant paradise. We focus on being accessible and affordable in hopes to provide more growing space for everyone!
conservation efforts matter.
We take pride in our conservative morals and eco-friendly practices. We heavily recycle products, find homes for unwanted plants/products, remove invasive and harmful species, reintroduce native species, and help educate our customers on what they can do in their outdoor spaces to provide for
their local environment.
Because of this, As Things Bloom is able to offer low-cost services, as well as donated resources, labor, & supplies to families or organizations in need of help. We built a plant, landscape material, and pot recycling program so we can donate directly to our community too.
how we care for our land determines what- and who- will grow from it.

“Tayler is AMAZING! She’s done several home visits to help me with my plants and not only does she figure out what’s wrong, but she educates you on how to avoid plant problems. This girl knows her stuff and you can tell she wants to make a difference with plant care”
