At the turn of the month, us Full Belly flower farmers are transitioning our flower power from fresh to dried bouquets and arrangements. Therefore, these are our final days of fresh, cut flower sales, and we want to thank you for enjoying these buds and blossoms with us all season long.
This year, we grew approximately 15 acres of flowers partitioned across four fields. To inform new readers and remind our seasoned ones, we parade in and out of these fields with the change of the seasons, picking over 50 varieties of flowers from early February to late October. Some of my personal favorites from this year were our early spring Apricot Pride tulips, late spring rudbeckia and feverfew, shoulder crop of statice, and summer marigolds. Under good leadership and managed by skilled hands, these flower fields have adorned the heart of the farm.
