While we’re known for our organically grown flower, we’ve always believed in cultivating something more: a farm that feeds and supports its people, land, and local community.

Lake County faces one of the highest rates of food insecurity in California, and access to fresh, nutritious food is a real and urgent need. That’s why, three years ago, we started a vegetable program not just for our team, but for our neighbors.

Since then, we’ve harvested and donated over 5,000 pounds of organic produce every year — and in 2025, we’re on track to more than double that, with a goal of delivering 10,000+ pounds to families, schools, and food access organizations across the county.

We proudly supply veggies to places like Clear Lake Gleaners, Cobb School Farmstead (where we also grow pumpkins for every child), our Pasta Farm staff and families, and even our retail partners. We grow a wide variety: tomatoes, peppers, eggplants, onions, kale, beets, lettuce, broccoli, shallots, and insectary flowers to support pollinators — all grown with organic practices and lots of heart.

To extend the season and reduce waste, we also preserve our bounty through sauce-making and canning — because around here, we like to say we’re preserving the pasta-bilities.

This year, we’re expanding again with more planting and beautification efforts, including the creation of a Three Sisters Garden, a traditional Native American farming method combining corn, beans, and squash. It will not only serve as a model of ecological balance but also a space for education, connection, and community pride.

This is what growing with intention looks like — and we’re just getting started.
