Why I farm flowers

Flowers have always been a big part of my life mainly because my mother had an obsession with them. She was the one with the green thumb and I never thought I would follow in her footsteps until I experienced the joy they can bring to one's life.

After I was widowed, August of 2014, I lived in such dark sadness for months. Then I stumbled across Floret Flower Farm online and seeing their beautiful flowers brought rays of sunshine into my darkness.

I started a blog, Blossoming Widow, and now I'm a Flower Farmer! It's a lot of hard work but the joy of working with flowers, smelling their fragrance and reaping a harvest of such beauty makes it all worth it.
