Our Story

Canyon Blooms Petals for Patients was founded with the goal of bringing joy to those in our community who might be going through a difficult time. Dr. Kara Lolley was inspired to create “Petals for Patients” during the height of the Covid pandemic. She saw so much suffering and realized that she could bring a moment of joy to someone simply by giving the gift of flowers. “Flowers are a universal message of kindness. And the world needs more kindness right now.”

Canyon Blooms Petals for Patients was founded in memory of Kara’s dear friend Candace. Candace believed in the healing power of nature and of small gestures of generosity. When she came to the farm for her own end for life hospice care, Kara pledged to do something in her honor. This was the seed for Petals for Patients.

100% of the profits of our flower sales go to go to providing farm-fresh flowers to those in hospice, long-term nursing care facilities, women’s shelters, and other areas of need. We rely on the generosity of our donors, the community, and volunteers to make this happen! Your support means the world to us.
