40th Anniversary
It's Always Been Plants
At Peace Tree Farm, It has always been about plants. Candy Traven never had a dog growing up; instead she had a begonia immense. Imbued with the magic of plants from a young age by her grandmother, one of Candy's first memories is of light filtering through the begonia's beautifully fuzzy and textured leaves. Candy gave Lloyd Traven a potted coleus plant shortly after meeting in college. Lloyd called Candy frantically saying the plant had wilted, Candy suggested he water it and at that point, Lloyd too discovered the magic of plants. From then on, it was always plants together. Candy and Lloyd knew they wanted to have a greenhouse one day but little did they know that greenhouse would go on to grow more than just plants, it would foster a thriving business of over 40 years and a life of passion and purpose.
