“Slow Flowers”
Ever thought about where your flowers come from? Most grocery store bouquets are grown in another country and shipped thousands of miles to finally get to you. Not only does that require tons of resources and have a large carbon footprint, but the quality of the flowers is far inferior to fresh, locally grown ones. I had no idea either! Now I’m proud to be a part of the Slow Flowers Movement that seeks to educate consumers and support US flower farmers in supplying top-quality blooms to our neighbors, near and far.
Our blooms are organically grown in my garden in Palm Coast, Florida, and available for local weekly delivery (Flager County only), at select local retailers, or U-Cut (by appointment only).
I love using herbs like rosemary, mint, lemon balm for greenery. Because they’re organically grown, they’re safe to cook with. You can also rub them between your fingers for a little aromatherapy, or leave them in the vase for a week or two until they sprout roots. Then pot them up or plant them to grow your own mini herb garden!
I also love to use native plants, which thrive in our local climate, require less water than non-natives, as well as provide habitats for local birds, pollinators, and the like.
Sustainability is important to me, so in addition to growing organically and being as water-wise as possible, I strive to avoid single-use materials by delivering bouquets in reusable mason jars and using recyclable paper for wrapped bouquets, rather than plastic.
Some of the flowers you’ll see in your seasonal bouquets include: sunflowers, zinnias, cosmos, celosia, gomphrena, yarrow, strawflowers, black-eyed susans, and coreopsis (Florida’s state wildflower, by the way!).
I’m so grateful for your support of our tiny family business. We hope you love your flowers as much as we loved growing them for you.
