Did you know that nearly 80% of cut flowers sold in the U.S. are flown in from thousands of miles away—mostly from countries like Colombia and Ecuador?
 

So, why does that matter?
 

Think about tomatoes. We all know the best ones are those grown locally, picked at the peak of ripeness. Sure, you can find tomatoes at the grocery store in December—but let’s be honest, they just don’t compare. The flavor is muted, the texture isn’t quite right, and they’ve likely been bred more for shelf life and shipping than for taste.
 

Flowers are no different.
 

Imported flowers are often treated and handled in ways that prioritize durability over beauty or fragrance. They’re harvested before their prime to survive long journeys, and by the time they reach you, they’ve lost much of their natural charm.
 

Buying local flowers means getting blooms that are fresh, vibrant, and full of character—grown and harvested with care just days (or even less!) before they reach your hands. You’ll discover unique varieties that big box stores simply don’t offer.
 

Even better? You’re supporting a local Idaho farm and building a connection with the people who grow your flowers. Your dollars stay in the community and help small farms like ours thrive.
 

We’d love for you to experience the beauty and seasonality of locally grown flowers. Thank you for supporting our farm—we truly appreciate it!
 

With gratitude,
