Owner
Denise Dalaker
Denise founded Bagley Pond Perennials in 2018. Growing up, her mom always said she belonged on a farm because of her love for animals and growing plants. She started her career as an accountant after graduating from the University of New Hampshire. While working in the corporate world, Denise was a passionate gardener and nature enthusiast. She raised her three children surrounded by many perennial gardens and a large vegetable garden full of birds, butterflies and bees! In 2017 she met her husband that owned a farm but was not a farmer. Melding her passion for gardening with a love of wildlife, Bagley Pond Perennials was born, filling a well needed niche in New Hampshire for locally and organically grown native plants. A dream come true, and a mission created.
Greenhouse Manager
Marc Govoni
Marc has a B.A in Philosophy from Plymouth State University and an M.A in Chinese Religion from Florida State University. After graduating, he was inspired to work at Bagley Pond by his Buddhist faith. Marc views the act of tending to perennials as a meditation in itself—an opportunity to practice presence and care, and to honor the natural world. Working with the earth is a constant reminder of the interdependent nature of all things. This interconnectedness is witnessed in the way each plant, pollinator, and season interact. It is his hope that each perennial grown can help create a more sustainable world, one garden at a time.
