Meet the FARM Team

Diana (they/them)

Proprietor, Farmer-florist, Plant Whisperer  

Diana Mae Flowers allows me to connect with the earth, the seasons, and my community. My introduction to farming began in 2010 when I worked on a small family-run vegetable farm in Virginia. Growing flowers allows me to blend my artistic background and passion for working with the land. I have also worked as a farm educator, nurturing the next crop of gardeners (or at least vegetable-lovers.) 'Mae' is tribute to my namesake, Great-Nana Mae–a woman with great chutzpah and tenacity.

Margo (she/her)

Partner, Flower Harvest Apprentice

As a newer resident of the Hudson Valley, Margo appreciates never being far from farms, cozy small town cafes, and, of course, flowers. When not at the farm or farmers’ market with Diana and Stevie, Margo works at NYC nonprofit Hot Bread Kitchen, bringing together her communications and design background with a desire to make the food industry a more equitable place.

Stevie (she/her)

Farm Safety Patrol, Community Support, Top Dog

Stevie started her farm career in Spring 2020 and hasn’t looked back! Come for the cuddles, stay for the locally-foraged sticks. Stevie reminds us daily to be playful, to be soft, to know the importance of getting out for a good walk, and to always ask for extra cuddles.
