From Front Yard to Flower Farm
As a florist, I loved the idea of having my own cut flower garden to use for all my designs. I brought up the idea to my husband and he took the idea and ran (more like sprinted) with it! We took the Floret Workshop by Erin Benzakein in 2021 and learned so much. We turned our basement cellar into our “growing” room and the rest is history.
This year, we are sowing our seeds into the soil at Gilchrist Orchard. Our blooms will grow next to 10,000 apple trees; I can hardly wait to see it. What a gift it is to get our hands dirty with the literal fruits of the earth that God has given us!
We look forward to another year of sowing seeds & harvesting beautiful blooms in a flower field that will be roughly 8x the size of our front yard flower farm. Crazy? Maybe a little. Expectant? Yes. We know that God will use this flower farm for His glory - one little, beautiful bloom at a time.
