Why local flowers?
Lower Carbon Footprint
This one is especially close to our hearts. When we were searching for flowers for our wedding in 2023, we knew we wanted to prioritize locally grown blooms. What we discovered was surprising—many florists and grocery stores rely on imported flowers, often sourced from thousands of miles away.
By choosing local flowers, you’re not only supporting nearby growers but also reducing the environmental impact caused by long-distance transportation. Fresher, more sustainable, and grown with care—local flowers make a difference.
“The majority of cut flowers this time of year are flown in from Colombia and Ecuador on refrigerated airplanes, burning through fossil fuels. Commercial flower farming has also been linked to other environmental problems, such as toxic pesticides and extensive water use. To be truly climate-conscious, you might consider skipping the luxury of winter flower bouquets.”

Quality & Longer Vase Life
Locally grown flowers are generally harvested at a much closer time to sale. They do not need to go through days of shipping and are handled minimally. We also hand pick each flower and only ensure the highest quality blooms are used for our bouquets and arrangements. Trust us, you will see the difference.
Community & Connection
We believe in the power of flowers to bring joy, connection, and beauty to our community. By choosing locally grown blooms, you're not just supporting a small farm—you’re investing in meaningful moments.
We’ve had the privilege of providing flowers for life’s most special occasions, from weddings and baby showers to anniversaries and fundraisers. Our CSA program has allowed us to connect with neighbors and share the joy of fresh, seasonal flowers. Whether given as a gesture of love, friendship, or support, flowers have a profound way of uplifting spirits and expressing what words cannot.
When you choose local flowers, you’re choosing quality, sustainability, and a deeper connection to your community.
