Join us at our General Meeting on September 12th to hear award-winning rosarian, Danielle Hahn, speak on the history of Rose Story Farm. Danielle Hahn and her husband Bill started Rose Story Farm in 1998 on their fifteen-acre farm in the Carpinteria Valley in Central California. Rose Story Farm began in 1998, when they decided to try growing 1000 rose bushes on a half-acre of their lemon and avocado farm. The couple imagined an old-fashioned rose farm, with the radiant hues of European and pre-1950 American varieties in bloom across their farm. They named the farm Rose Story Farm because roses are central to some of the family’s most enchanting experiences of their family-owned business.

Danielle Hahn was born in Santa Barbara and attended local schools until she entered Stanford University. She graduated with honors three years later, with a BA in psychology and a minor in Italian. Returning to Santa Barbara, she opened a series of retail establishments while at the same time being the founder and managing partner of an innovative marketing firm that designed and launched events and premiere parties for the entertainment industry. Danielle was honored with the Great Rosarian of the World award in 2014. Rose Story Farm and Danielle have been featured in Santa Barbara Magazine, Wine Country Living, Sunset Magazine, Oprah Magazine, Martha Stewart Living, Veranda, and The Wall Street Journal just to name a few. Television coverage of Rose Story Farm has been presented on California Heartland, A PBS special, The Today Show and Martha Stewart’s Living online series American Made.
