Locally Grown; Our Flower Farm | Farm to Florist | Tallahassee, Florida

We haven't really shared much about our cut flower farm but it is time for that to change! We are honored to be able to provide our customers with many locally grown flowers!

The owner of  A Country Rose,  Annette started farming on an acre at her home in Wakulla County about eight years ago. She has since moved herself and her farm to a new location with more space for growth (pun intended).

Annette and her husband Ed are the ones who make all the magic happen. The most current tasks around the farm as of the last couple of weeks is a reworking of all the beds. They've been pulling up all the irrigation, laying new rows which includes 100's of tractor loads of compost and mulch then re-laying of black ground cover (to keep weeds at bay), white ground cover (to keep the black from burning the flowers) and then replacement of the irrigation. It's a lot of work but the results will be amazing and below is a sneak peek of what we are harvesting right now. 

Of course what we can grow is dependent on the season and plant tolerance of our region so we still supplement with other wholesalers. In addition, Annette works to use sustainable and organic practices leaving as little carbon foot print as possible. 

We all get so excited when full, colorful buckets of our flowers are delivered to the shop and we get to start creating arrangements and wedding designs with them.
