Larks Petals and Stems

09/30/2026

When we started this farm five years ago, I must admit we did not fully grasp the journey we were beginning, though I had always dreamed of becoming a flower farmer.

This farm became a meaningful outlet for our emotions and a source of renewal. It kept our hands busy during difficult times and provided much-needed peace. Most importantly, it became a place where our dearest friends created memories we will treasure always, filled with the joy of sowing seeds, planting plugs, harvesting, and arranging flowers together.

Upon learning that Mike and I (Jen) were going to be grandparents several months ago, I realized I needed to dedicate more time to my family, a decision I made without hesitation. It seems I have reached a point of maturity where I truly understand what matters most in life. I have historically been a dedicated worker, sometimes prioritizing work over family, and although I cannot reclaim that lost time, I am committed to focusing on the future and learning to balance my need for productivity.

One of the most valuable lessons farming has taught me is that everything has a season: you plant, you nurture, you harvest, and eventually, you let go. We are now entering a new season of life as a family.

This flower farm has been one of the most beautiful chapters of our lives, teaching us patience, offering healing, and fostering lifelong friendships, including the wonderful connection we have shared with all of you.

Thank you for believing in our dream. We are deeply grateful for your support in purchasing our bouquets, sharing our work, and encouraging our family, all of which allowed us to share the beauty of our fields with you.

While Tracy will continue to pursue and expand her passion growing show quality dahlias; Larks Petals and Stems will be permanently closing.

Considering we have been a long standing reliable source of supply for many dahlia growers across the United States, if you are interested in purchasing tubers, please feel free to reach out to Tracy at (951) 288-6341 or send an email to [email protected] .

We will always be thankful for this experience. From the bottom of our hearts, thank you for growing with us.

Fall is for Planting!

We are thrilled to offer you the chance to get your hands on some beautiful, healthy perennials just in time for your fall planting! We’ve made it super easy—our team will do the digging, and you just have to order your favorites online! We have a wide selection available, and we can’t wait to share these lovely plants with you.

Here's the catch... to keep our pricing low, we will dig and wrap your plants the same day the order is scheduled for fulfillment to keep the roots moist as we will not be providing pots. Shipping is available for peony roots only, all other items will be available for pick up at the farm stand.

Get ready to spruce up your garden with some fresh blooms! Happy gardening!

Yes, we have been extremely absent from social media and here is my reason why!!!

On Friday, July 17th, we (Mike and Jen) officially became Grandparents to baby Beckett!! This sweet little nugget made his way into the world 3 weeks early, weighing in at 5 # 8oz, everyone is happy and healthy. Beckett is so blessed to have such an amazing Momma Hannah Kerrigan and Daddy Brendan Kerrigan - we couldn't be more proud of them!

Don't forget to hug and kiss your family - they are all that matter in this world! ❤️

A SEASON OF CRAZINESS!

It's peak wedding season here in our beautiful Rogue Valley and we are enjoying helping bridal floral dreams come to life. But before we head into our crazy production months, we wanted to remind you that bouquet subscriptions start on Wednesday, July 8th. The last day to get in on the action is Sunday, July 5th so hurry now!

PERENNIAL PLANT SALE

Can you imagine that we started our perennial garden from seed just over five years ago? While they are robust and happily thriving, it is time to divide these guys before they crowd each other out. We are planning on a "U-Dig" this fall when the plants start to go dormant. Some varieties will be pre-dug and divided but don't worry, we have a plethora of varieties that will be offered. Further details will be forthcoming but in the meantime, share this news with your gardener friends.

Don't miss out on an opportunity to participate in our huge perennial plant sale this fall!

WHERE TO FIND OUR FLOWERS

We are so fortunate to have built a relationship with family owned retailers who believe in supporting their local producers. You can pick up our bouquets at Sherm's Food 4 Less, Harry and David in Medford and Shop 'n Kart in Ashland.

We also offer the opportunity to purchase through our online store (https://www.larkspetalsandstems.com/shop/fresh-flowers/3) for either local delivery or in person pick up at our farm stand. We love connecting with new friends through flowers!

Thank you all for your support - this little farm couldn't be here today without you.

Enjoy celebrating the 250th anniversary of our country's independence - Happy 4th of July!

Jennifer, Tracy, and Lexy

What am I even looking at here?! 😱 It's a 70-foot row of Lisianthus plugs getting choked out by w**ds! You might think I'm a terrible flower farmer or a bad plant mom, but really, I'm just an incredibly grateful crazy woman. 🤩 This is the outcome of backpacking, camping, hiking, pickleball, w**e drinking with friends, daily workouts at the gym, and lazy afternoons on the patio with my husband. Would you trade all that fun for w**ding? I sure wouldn't!

I used to be super diligent about w**d control, but this year is different. My reason? We're going to be grandparents in August! I'm teaching myself how to balance work and family before that beautiful bundle of joy arrives.

For those of you who share the compulsive disorder of overworking, please remember that the only people who truly remember how hard you worked are your family. They remember how much time you dedicated to work instead of being fully present with them. 💖👶🌸
