-Welcome to The Hoosier Herb Chronicles-

Where herbal wisdom meets whimsy! Follow the adventures of Hoosier Herb, our dancing green mascot with a heart full of healing.

Meet Hoosier Herb: Our Dancing Green Mascot with a Mission

At Dancing Gardens, we believe healing starts with a smile—and that’s exactly why Hoosier Herb exists. He’s not just a dancing green herb with fabulous moves; he’s a joyful reminder that healing can be lighthearted, rooted in fun, and deeply personal.

Hoosier Herb represents our mission: to reconnect people with the Earth, with themselves, and with plant medicine. Born from the Indiana soil and raised on sunshine and intention, Hoosier Herb is here to help children and adults alike learn about herbs, gardening, and wellness in a way that sticks.

He’s goofy, he’s green, and he LOVES to make people laugh. Whether he’s leading a gardening song, sneaking into your CSA box, or teaching little ones about the magic of dandelions, Hoosier Herb is our ambassador for herbal joy.

He doesn’t have a favorite herb, remedy, or tea—yet. That’s because he’s still on his own healing journey, just like the rest of us. Every season, Hoosier Herb learns about new plants and shares his discoveries through stories, coloring pages, and surprise appearances.

Want to meet him? He pops up at events, dances across our socials, and might even deliver your CSA box in style.

Stay tuned—we have sticker giveaways, garden games, and Hoosier Herb’s very own product coming soon!
