GROWING ORGANIC FLOWERS IN SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA

this summer, we will be harvesting our first crop of local, organically grown flowers! it really is an exciting season for us. we have wanted to start our own microfarm for years and we have finally made the decision to move toward that goal. since we live an organic lifestyle (and erin is flower obsessed), growing organic flowers is a natural first step.

we haven't always grown flowers. we started out growing organic veggies and fruits in a family member's yard and on our apartment's balcony (see pic below). but flowers are addicting...there is just something about the pretty little things that pulls you in.

when i started researching the idea of growing organic flowers, i learned that most of our blooms here are actually imported and coated with harmful toxins and chemicals. but with the growing movement toward purchasing locally grown, organic flowers that are safe for our families and our environment, it is really a perfect time to start growing.

so after much planning, researching, and long nights talking, we are pleased to announce that we are raising organically grown flowers here in southern california. we look forward to taking our blooms to our favorite farmer's market, providing floral designers with fresh, high quality flowers, and offering our bouquets to our local subscription program clients. we might even be hosting a few pop-up shops in the near future!

so if you would like to stay up to date, hear about what blooms are going to be growing and made available, receive updates about where you can purchase our flowers, request more information about our flowers, or just want to say hi, please feel free to send us an email. you can also sign up for our newsletter via the form at the bottom of this page if you want to receive automatic email updates.
