The Owner & Grower

Danielle Greer is an ecologist and statistician by training. She is an avid steward of the environment, with a love for all things wild. While she enjoys her current "day job" in clinical research, operating VFF is her passion. She has always loved gardening with native plants and also enjoys spending time with her dogs, chickens, and turtles and traveling with her husband of 22 years.

The Farm

The name "Valeo Flower Farm" was very intentional, as the Latin verb "Valeo" translates as to be strong, able, valid, or of worth. VFF is a 0.22-acre urban "farm" (neighborhood lot), located in NE Colorado Springs. Growing space includes over 3,500 sq ft of naturalistic and cottage-style landscape gardens, 350 sq ft of (15) raised beds, a 100-sq ft low-tunnel, and several dozen planting crates.
