Dina Merrow is a gardener, certified yoga instructor, and the founder and creative force behind The Garden at Pinehurst Farm in Bristol, Connecticut. She restored the last standing greenhouse and barn of the historic Bristol Nurseries, transforming the property into a place where she grows, gardens, curates, builds, and creates.

At Pinehurst, Dina designs and leads hands-on garden experiences and seasonal workshops centered around plants, flowers, herbs, and natural materials. Her workshops include floral arranging, planting and gardening experiences, tea blending, succulent and terrarium workshops, and seasonal creations.
Quality and presentation are an important part of every experience Dina creates. She thoughtfully sources quality plants, flowers, materials, and supplies and puts great care into how everything is curated and displayed. From the materials participants work with to the overall setup of the space, each detail is considered to make the experience feel welcoming, beautiful, and thoughtfully put together.
Her workshops are relaxed, creative, and approachable, with no prior experience needed. Whether she is working with plants and flowers, teaching a workshop, or guiding a yoga class, Dina enjoys creating opportunities for people to slow down, learn something new, connect, and leave with something they are proud to have created.
