Welcome to Beneath the Maple

Hi, I’m Jennifer! Thanks for finding your way to my Denver Garden blog. Here, I’ll write about my home garden, the food we grow during the summer and our landscaping projects. I also love to use our landscaped garden areas to create outdoor living spaces and backyard experiences to enjoy with friends and family.

A Little About Me

I’m a creative professional by day and own a graphic design business. While I’m so fulfilled by my career, I also LOVE the work that goes into building my home and creating a beautiful garden. I’ve worked from home as an Art Director for over 10 years now. Because of my flexible schedule, quick stretch breaks away from my desk now include a walk into the backyard to admire my flourishing garden. It’s a great balance to my time on the computer.

My husband, Sterling, helps me build the ideas I imagine! He owns a construction company so together, with my creative eye for things and his knowledge of “how to build it”, we create some pretty cool stuff!

Our Denver, Colorado Garden

We live in a small home in Westminster, Colorado with our black lab, Max. Six years ago, we left downtown apartment living for a house in the Denver suburbs. Before we moved in, we renovated the inside of it. But the outside hadn’t been touched. Our house sits on a third of an acre, and the back yard needed more than just a little love an care. It needed a full overhaul. While the first summer of yard work was more grueling than fun, I never could have imagined the joy I’d get from creating a garden through hard work and pure sweat equity!


I truly appreciate you visiting my blog. I hope you find some enjoyment and inspiration on these pages!

Sincerely,
Jennifer Dyer

Why is my blog called Beneath the Maple?

Our home sits under two maple trees – one in the front yard and one in the back. Most of what we create happens under these two trees. Here, we work together on our house and grow vegetables and flowers in our garden. It’s where we dream up what we’re doing next in our backyard. Sign up for our newsletter and you’ll always know what’s happening Beneath the Maple.
