WANT TO KNOW YOUR FLOWERS
THEN
KNOW YOUR FARMER
The links below will show you who and what we flower farmers are and are not about. If you spend 15 minutes watching the video from the ASCFG you'll come away with a breathe of fresh air about those wonders of nature that perfume our air, attract pollinators that give us fruits, vegetables and medicines, encourage our colleagues, comfort and delight our loved ones as well as passers-by. When done with sustainable, water conserving and organic practices Flower Farming is a humbling and honorable way of life.
We hope you'll agree and that you'll decide to support local flower farmers, wherever you or the recipient of your floral gift, are as your preferred suppliers of
flowers -
the food for your body, heart and soul.
We support or are members of all of these groups. We've learned so much from each of these groups. All of what we learn benefits us and in turn you, our supporters.
Keep this list handy for when you are not acquiring your flowers from us and want to let your conscience eve a part of what guides your floral purchases.
You may not see us listed because we are a bit shy but no less enthusiastic.
