Cleona Flowers LLC
Cleona Flowers is run by Dara Machotka-Hafey. She has lived in Lebanon County since 2017 in both Annville and Cleona. She and her family have called Cleona home for 5 years. Dara is originally from Northern Va and has also lived in Florida and New Mexico. Her husband, Jonathan, is originally from Mt. Gretna. Jonathan and daughter, Nia, help with this business, as well as a few other locals in Lebanon County.
Dara’s involvement in the community includes past employment as a substitute teacher in Lebanon County and as an Animal Care Technician at the Humane Society of Lebanon County, which she remains a kitten foster parent.
Other endeavors revolve around her daughter’s athletics and the volunteer opportunities associated with being a student-athlete parent.
In her free time, Dara (pronounced Dare-uh) enjoys swimming, pickleball and tennis, as well as gardening and landscaping and last, but not least, spending time with her family, which also includes her 6 cats, dog and turtle. All rescues.
She has 10 years of experience as a floral designer and has worked every aspect within the floral industry. Flowers are her passion. She looks forward to meeting and sharing her art with you.
You’ll also become familiar with Jonathan's Green VW Doka. It looks like a cross between a VW Vanagon and a Truck. She’ll be one of the main delivery vehicles that we will use to transport your deliveries. Jonathan will be more than happy to share all about it and let you take a pic.

Delivery Policy
We, at Cleona Flowers, will do our best to deliver on the dates and times that have been requested. If for unforeseen circumstances, we cannot, we will contact you to inform you of any changes. We guarantee that our products will be delivered as fresh and as beautiful as when they left our shop.
We keep delivery fees as low as possible, so that more of your money goes towards the product that you are ordering. The delivery price attached to the item must be charged due to fuel costs and vehicle wear and tear. These charges may go up during peak holiday seasons because our suppliers charge more for their products during these high demand periods.
You can be assured that our Delivery Costs are competitive with other area florists, and in many cases, even lower.
Delivery in Cleona is always FREE!
Thank you for choosing Cleona Flowers.

Refund / Cancellation Policy
At Cleona Flowers, we strive to provide exceptional service and products for you and yours. Our products are crafted with care with your needs in mind. When you put your trust in us to create orders, you give us the responsibility to not only custom design gifts, but to do so in a timely, cost effective and as ecologically sound way as we can. From birth celebrations to weddings, we are there for you.
When choosing delivery, it is an integral part of your order, so items should look as lovely as when they left the shop.
Many of our products are perishable. Keeping that in mind, flower arrangements, as an example, should have a shelf life of between 5 days to 2 weeks, depending on the types of flowers. That being said, sometimes fresh cut flowers do not open-up the way that we anticipated. Roses, for instance, may only open partially, or not at all. In cases like this, bring in the product within 5 days of receipt, or take a picture and email it to us at cleonaflowers@outlook.com and we will replace the product, free of charge.
If we haven’t met all of these expectations, for any reason, please reach out to us. We will do our best to give you what you intended.
If for any reason you’d like to cancel your order, please call us as soon as possible at: 717-279-1585. We will be happy to refund your payment. However, if the item is out for delivery, we will not be able to refund the delivery fee. If the items are specialty perishables, i.e., fruit baskets or baked goods, we will retain a $10 fee.
Thank you for putting your trust in Cleona Flowers. With sincere regards,

Product Selection
Cleona Flowers thoughtfully orders from companies that specialize in quality floral products and products that are as ecologically sound as possible. Selection during ordering plays a big part in this choice.
The floral industry has historically been a not so environmentally friendly one. The heavy use of large amounts pesticides, heavy use of plastics, flowers sourced from great distances, and non-separation of compostable and recyclable materials in the waste stream are a few things that Cleona Flowers is doing its best to offset.
Many Florists in this country are changing and heading in a direction that Europe has been embracing for many years, to be sustainable. You can be certain that this does not impact the beauty and quality of our products. In fact, it adds to the creativity & uniqueness.
We do utilize traditional floral products but do our best to do our part. A few of the items that we offer to offset waste are:
Compostable Water Tubes
Bamboo Card Stakes
Like New Vases & Containers
Gently used Shop Equipment
Local Flowers & Greenery
Paper Flowers
These practices do little to increase price. In fact, many of these choices lower our cost to you.
Cleona Flowers is grateful for your business. Thank you for helping us do our part.

Substitutions will always be of equal value.
Thank you for your understanding.
