Buying Flowers? Support Local Florida Farmers
Shopping local is one of the most important things you can do to strengthen your community and support farms and small businesses. When it comes to fresh flowers, buying local is a great way to support a nearby business and ensure that your flowers will be as fresh as possible.
Fortunately, Florida boasts many amazing flower farms (some that let you pick your own) that transform any day into a special occasion—and a trip to a flower farm can become a romantic date for two, or a memorable weekend outing for the whole family.
We feature a few farms below that promise a beautiful experience!
