Mission Statement

Beyond Behnke’s began as a way to stay connected after the closing of our family’s garden center and continues today through a small shop inspired by gardening, nature, and community. Our online shop focuses on offering meaningful home and garden gifts — many of them fair trade — that reflect the same values of care, connection, and joy that have always been part of the Behnke story.

Beyond Behnke's

Growing Forward Together

Nurturing the minds and souls of gardeners, both new and old

Mission 

At Beyond Behnke's, we provide resources to help gardeners in all aspects of their gardening experience. We believe gardening techniques and strategies should be readily available to everyone and that collaborating in an authentic online environment can provide gardeners the resources they need to grow. We also believe that gardening is good for the soul. Interacting with nature brings us happiness and offers opportunities to connect with family, friends, and faith because the love of gardening crosses all generations, both old and new.   

We care about our community, and we are dedicated to providing content that will make you laugh, make you smile, and teach you something along the way. Our goal is to nurture both your mind and your soul.   

Vision

At Beyond Behnke's, we envision a community where gardeners can come to share stories of their successes, ask questions, and get answers. We see a world where gardening and nature can bring people together to celebrate the joy of growing plants.
