Neighborhood Flower Stand: Bouquets go out at 9am and remain until they sell out or 8pm. Follow Bestside Blooms on Instagram for all flower stand updates. I always update on social media and put away the yard stands when we sell out.

Cash or Venmo is accepted. Please note there will be no one to make change for large bills. Donations are always welcome if you do not have the exact amount.

Spring 2025 Bouquet Subscriptions: Sign up for our Newsletter to have exclusive access to the Subscription pre-sale in early 2025.

Custom arrangements: Available seasonally via the Shop.

No. Please understand this is our family home and we value our privacy. You are welcome in the Flower Stand and driveway! Tours of the garden could be a future event - let me know if you’re interested!

Yes! The flower stand is the perfect spot for a cute snapshot. Just make sure not to get our cars in the picture! Please tag @BestsideBlooms on social media!

Yes! I love to meet my neighbors and I’m always up for chatting about flowers. Don’t be put-off if I only have a minute to chat though. I’m usually running in several different directions!

Not at this time.

At this time our flowers are only available to our retail customers.

Kind Hearts Bloom is a nonprofit organization founded by Kristen, the creator of Bestside Blooms. Its mission is to foster kindness, mental wellness, and community connection through gardening and flowers.

While Bestside Blooms continues as a social enterprise offering beautiful flowers and services, Kind Hearts Bloom focuses on community-building programs, like teaching neighbors to grow flowers and donating blooms to brighten lives across Grand Rapids.

We wanted to expand the ways we can serve our community by focusing on education, mental wellness, and accessibility. A nonprofit structure allows us to host programs, apply for grants, and partner with other organizations to create a bigger impact.

There are so many ways to help us grow! You can:

• Volunteer at a Neighborhood Blooms garden or workshop.

• Donate to support our programs.

• Follow us on social media to share our mission.

• Spread the word to friends and family about what we’re doing.

You can visit the Kind Hearts Blooms website or follow Kind Hearts Bloom on social media for updates, volunteer opportunities, and stories about how flowers are making a difference in Grand Rapids.
