A lot of us are new to the idea of a what a flower subscription even is? So I wanted to share with about what an awesome idea this is!
1st of all, how many of you want to have a fresh bouquet of flowers on your table every week? Of course, all of us! And most of us, would prefer something that is local and lasts as long as possible! Local flowers mean they have not had harsh ingredients put on them to be shipped and processed, but something that has been freshly picked from a farm near you!
And 2nd, some of us have a loved one that we would love to be able to give flowers to but the cost of flowers from a florist is just too pricey! 
3rd, many businesses  purchase flowers every week and this an awesome idea to have your LOCAL flowers delivered to you each week! 
4th, when you purchase a flower subscription you get the best picks! What this means is that the flower subscription bouquets are always what gets put together first. And, if you want to request colors and such; you just drop me an e-mail and request that week!
5th, you support your local farmer! By paying for your flowers in the beginning of the season, this helps us as we have a lot of cost in the spring as we get your seeds, bulbs and plugs started to enjoy later! Our flower farm is located in New Carlisle, Ohio where we have currently have 1 acre of flowers which includes one unheated greenhouse where we can grow earlier blooms and better quality flowers that don't want the intense sun. Flowers are also available for pick-up at the farm. 

SO HOW DOES THIS WORK?
You purchase a flower subscription ahead of time and you have choices on how often you want your subscription:
Monthly (April-Oct.)
Bi-weekly (July-Sept. 6 weeks)
Weekly (July-Sept. 12 weeks)
We have pick-up locations on Thursdays @ the Second Street Market in Dayton or Saturdays @ the Heights Farmers Market in Huber Heights. 
We also offer delivery (charge by the mile)


All you need to do is fill out your form and we can take credit card over the phone or mail in your payment. Also, @ our market locations, where we can  accept cash, check and credit. 

Upon payment, you will receive a postcard with all of our contact info ect...and that will also show you what you purchased! What a great gift for yourself and for others!

The beauties of Spring from the hoophouse

Its been exciting to put up our first unheated greenhouse (also know as a hoop house) last Fall! We got 750 anemone corms planted and 300 ranunculus in November and watched them sprout and bloom into beautiful flowers!
On a 30 degree sunny day, you can walk in here to a balmy 70 degrees! What an awesome way to chase the winter blues away! Aside from the perk of having fresh, local flowers to sell and enjoy in March!
We soon will be planting Lisianthus to fill this thing up to the max for some awesome summer flowers! We sell flowers wholesale to local florists and retail as well. Flowers are available for pick-up at the flower farm in New Carlisle, Farmers Market, (see home page for dates and location) and delivery.

    This blog was inspired by the creativity of the Haitian people. The ideas of how they "Go Green" is because they have to save and make do with what they have. Unlike the American people with too much, that they don't think about waste. Their gardening and produce is grown mostly without pesticides, because they don't have it or they cannot afford it. In 2012-2014 our family had the opportunity to serve as missionaries in Haiti. We learned a lot and made many new friends there. Although we are now back to our home in America, we left a piece of our hearts there and try to visit and help where we can.
