Living in Kentucky I am a huge fan of the outdoors. I love flowers, herbs, pine combs and just the smell of winter. Creekside Farms wreaths are actually made from real herbs and flowers bringing the outdoors scents into your home. The story behind Creekside Farms is such a heartwarming story I really wanted to share it with you.
Creekside Farms Story
In the late 1980s, Larry and Carol Umbarger began growing
flowers, and then ornamental and culinary herbs to help with college expenses
for their 2 older children. This led to discovering a market for California
Pepper berries, which ultimately led to a connection with Smith and Hawken, an
upscale retailer of home and garden products. Smith and Hawken had a vendor who
needed help meeting a deadline for their company. So the Umbargers dove right
in, and that weekend learned how to make a wreath. They spent the next 3 weeks
making 3,000 wreaths in their playroom.
Today, Creekside Farms provides quality products to many retail and ecommerce companies, having designed and offered numerous product variants to those companies in its 25-year history. Now, 3,000 wreaths are made in a matter of days, instead of weeks.

The business has grown considerably, with family at its
core. Larry and Carol’s three sons and daughter-in-law now manage the business,
with significant contributions coming from very long time and committed
employees. Operations no longer exist at the family ranch, but instead now
operate on a 20-acre farm in Greenfield, CA, complete with a 12,000 square foot
manufacturing and office facility.
I think it is amazing how they began making wreaths to send their kids to school and it became a giant business! The wreath I chose was the Wine Country Wreath. I love Lavender and I thought it was so nice. When it actually came and I saw my wreath it was breathtaking. It is so beautiful and the scent is amazing. I love the grapes that are tucked inside the wreath the colors really pop. Creekside
