Culture Gardens

Hi! I'm Sara-- a NY transplant originally from Reno, Nevada. My background is in interior lighting, management, and hospitality. I studied philosophy & psychology at UNR and managed the still-running family business for several years , a residential lighting showroom established in the 70's. Before moving to NY I also operated three 5-star Airbnb properties, hosting hundreds of guests in a span of five years. It was this endeavor that allowed me the freedom to transplant across the country where my husband is from, to start a small homestead with my family. Aside from the flower farm we raise chickens as well as heritage turkeys. My goal is to provide our community with fresh local flowers from my farm and other local farms. 

I established my business and LLC, Culture Gardens, in 2024 after receiving a garden coach certification thru the Gardenary program. We built up the flower farm that year as well.  My husband built the Bloom Saloon in 2025 to support my goal of creating  a unique and joyful place for the community to shop fresh cut flowers, with an ode to my roots in the wild-west.
