Why buy local flowers?

Did you know about 80% of cut flowers used in the United States are flown in thousands of miles from countries like Colombia and Ecuador?

​

Why does it matter?  Well, we all know the best tomato is the one grown locally. Sure, when the snow's flying in December, we can find tomatoes at our grocery store. But, man! They are just not the same, are they? The flavor is muted and the texture is not the best. Those tomatoes have been bred and treated with who-knows-what to withstand transporting them the long distance from the offshore farms where they are grown, to our local grocer. They also have to be picked before ripening to help them not get squished.  Compared to the warm, juicy-ripe jewels we enjoy in August...well, there's just no comparison.  The same is true with flowers.

​

You're not only getting the freshest possible blooms harvested at just the right time- you are getting varieties from your farmer that just can't be had from a big box store. And bonus- you are also building a relationship with your farmer and helping the economy right here in Nampa, Idaho! Thank you!

​

We hope you'll try us and enjoy the seasonality of locally grown flowers!

​

We appreciate your support so much!
