About

Brooke grew up between Seneca and Cayuga lakes, spending her childhood playing by the lilacs and admiring her neighbor’s flower-filled yard. She discovered her love for growing flowers while working at a plant nursery in Mecklenburg during college breaks. While living in Portland, Oregon (the 'City of Roses'), she developed a chronic vestibular disorder that led her to find more joy and hope in flowers. During the pandemic, she returned to the Finger Lakes and started a flower farm. Brooke also taught English for over 20 years in Trumansburg middle and high schools and spent decades honing her flower-growing skills during her summer breaks.

Danny grew up in the Hudson Valley with a deep appreciation for wild places and natural beauty. His background in wilderness studies gives him a solid foundation in environmental stewardship and sustainability. Danny's skills as a woodworker and carpenter are essential to the infrastructure of Jenny Creek Flowers. He's also the owner of Palmer Woodcraft.

Jenny Creek Flowers is a family flower farm. We could not grow beautiful flowers without the hands-on support shown by our family including Brooke's mom, aunt, and our teenage son.
