About Us
We are a small family owned flower farm
Located in central Iowa, we offer specialty cut flowers and unique daylilies.
Our customers are "GivingColor" with every purchase
We believe flowers feed the soul, so why shouldn't they feed the world too?
Sustainable growing practices preserve the land
Our family lives and works on the farm, so we use sustainable growing practices.
Meet the family
Lori Bochner
Lori has always loved growing flowers and finds it fascinating that each variety of flower is different yet beautiful in their own way. She is responsible for marketing and strategic planning for the farm. She feels blessed to be able to grow beautiful flowers and witness the joy they provide to others.
Jim Bochner
Jim is Director of Operations at the farm and a self-proclaimed daylily addict. He is building a daylily hybridizing operation, and looks forward to propagating and introducing unique daylilies to the market. He is responsible for all farm operations including soil, irrigation and construction.
Nick Bochner
Nick is product quality manager at the farm and is also our entertainment director. He is the first to crack a joke and keep things entertaining. He has a passion for dahlias and can often be found in the fields tending to the stunning blooms. He also provides the "muscle" for big jobs around the farm.
GivingColor
We are a little farm with a big heart.
We are passionate about the joy beautiful flowers provide to our customers, but we're also passionate about giving back to our community and the world around us.
What is GivingColor?
1 for 6. Through our collaboration with Meals from the Heartland, we donate a meal that feeds six people for every flower purchase from our farm. To learn more about Meals from the Heartland, visit their website at www.mealsfromtheheartland.org.
Which Bochner Farms products count for the GivingColor initiative?
All flower purchases count - so the more flowers you buy, the more people you feed. This includes market bouquets, daylilies and bouquet subscriptions.
Do I need to request the GivingColor donation?
No, this is automatically donated by our farm for every purchase. After we process your order, we'll let you know how many healthy meals you provided as a result of your purchase.

Every bouquet is different
Each colorful bouquet throughout the season will be hand picked from our farm the day before it's delivered to your door. Flowers will vary each week because we design our bouquets using the best of what's blooming in the field.
Bouquets will be bursting with our fresh, farm grown flowers including larkspur, ranunculus and snapdragons in the spring to zinnias, sunflowers and cosmos in summer. Then fall brings heirloom chrysanthemums, dahlias, and asters.
GivingColor
All Bochner Flower subscriptions count toward our GivngColor initiative. For example, the full season weekly delivery option includes 12 bouquets and thus 12 meal donations. Your weekly subscription order will feed 72 people. Hooray!
