This is who we are!
Rainbow Springs Farm has been owned and operated as a trout farm for over a decade by Pat Goddard and for a very long time before that by other owners. He was joined by his wife Chandler Strange in 2013 and now two children Henry and Ella. Chandler has been growing flowers and learning a lot at Rainbow Springs for about 5 years. We sell to local florists and floral designers, brides, grocery stores, directly to customers, and offer monthly delivered flower subscriptions.
Rainbow Springs uses sustainable and organic methods. We are not certified anything but we work hard to honor our earth. The farm has an incredible natural Artesian spring, which stays a constant 52 degrees. This extraordinary water source is a very happy home for our fish and allows us to grow some amazing things in our naturally dry climate. We use organic soil from the Paonia Soil Company and are also wholesale distributors of their fine products. We love their large re-usable bags and incredible dirt!
Chandler joined Pat on the farm from New York City, where she spent 20 years working in fashion and art. She was raised in Maryland, also on a farm, and always loved flowers, floral design, and creating art work focused on flowers. she is basically obsessed with flowers.
