☔️🌼What would happen if you surrounded yourself with the people who shared your greatest passions in life?
✨💫 @snocofloco We have the influence to inspire each other to be creative without boundaries and try new things. Together we can make big ideas happen that might seem scary or hard to achieve alone. Last week I had this silly ‘Flower Umbrella’ idea just to spread joy and awareness about local flowers around @snohodowntown - Everyone jumped on board to make it come to life. I mean if it’s going to rain all of June we might as well play with the flowers 🤷🏼♀️
☂️🌦️Special thanks to @alchemy_blooms, @patriciacampesina and @corvidaeflowers for the design expertise and getting your hands dirty with me.
🪩Never know what can happen when you get a bunch of flower farmers together. Be sure to check out the collective each Thursday morning from 7AM-12PM @fleurs.creative closed next week for 4th of July but back at it the week following.
💃🏼Here’s to spreading flower cheer!
🌿🏡Everything we sell is 100% locally grown or curated. And if I didn’t grow it, someone from @snocofloco or @floralcurrentcollective did.
Why does that matter? A hundred years ago nearly all flowers were sourced domestically. Now over 80% of flowers are sourced from Latin America, pushing out American farms daily. Imported flowers are a $3.3 billion dollar industry filled with unseasonable flowers often covered in toxic chemicals, harvested using unfair labor practices. There is room for us small growers in this industry if we change the way we think about buying flowers.
🤔💭What if we became educated consumers? What if we started to support farmers in our area or look for those near us growing flowers by safe means? What if we instead purchased only locally grown flowers?
Do yourself a favor and buy *in season* flowers from a *small farmer* in *your community* 👈🏼 Make a difference right here in your own hometown 🌸
💐We have a limited number of Mother’s Day bouquets available at The Outpost this weekend on Happy Valley Road. I hope you stop by, and support our family farm.
📍🗺️Am I too far away? Just ask and I’ll try my best to connect you to a farmer in your backyard. 🚫 Just say no to Sunflowers in Spring, Tulips in the Fall, and join the Slow Flowers movement, where seasonal and sustainable flowers coexist right here in your community.

Some girls want jewelry. Some girls want flowers. Some girls want a giant pile of sh*t to grow their own flowers.🌻 I am who I am! 🤷🏼♀️
My husband doesn’t even ask me anymore what I want for my spring birthday, because the answer has always been “Compost!” 💸💩🪴🌷
📣 Morning Reminder: Don’t Dig Up In Doubt What You Planted In Faith 🌱✝️
Just as a gardener doesn’t constantly unearth seeds to check their progress, we shouldn’t constantly second-guess the decisions we’ve made that speak to our hearts. Two years ago I started this little Flower Business and we just keeping swimming 🐠 Learning more every day, every month and every season! 🪴
🌷Trust in the process friends, have faith in your journey, and let your efforts bloom in their own time!
☕️📸 Sippin’ coffee to the birds before the kids awake from my @treeshavefeelings mug. I bought this two years ago when I turned my depression into expression and unleashed, starting the beginning of Freedom Flowers journey 🌸
Let’s get curious for a second… 🧐 Y’all ever busted open an overwintered Sunflower Stalk? Pretty neat if you ask me 🍌🌻
July in the PNW just hits different. My favorite time of the year, the sun shines brighter, the air feels fresher, the days last longer and the beauty of nature is simply breathtaking. It was still light out at 10PM last night! 😍✨
Threw together a bouquet of Purpleberry Strawflower, Seeker Blue Statice, Madame Butterfly Red Snapdragons, Golden Chamomile, and Feverfew. A little jumble of the farms July's offerings so far! 💜🌼

Hellebores are rather unsuspecting in the garden - until they aren’t 🤌🏼 Who’s with me hoarding all the hellebores?? I just got three more absolute gems from @sublimegardensandsanctuary and can’t wait to find a place to tuck them into the garden. #helleborus #freedomflowers #stanwoodwa
“Daphne Odora” is not only a kick in the pants to say, but it’s also a fabulous evergreen shrub with pale-pink tubular flowers that are enticingly fragrant. If you know me, then you know I’m a sucker for an extra fragrant cultivar 🤌🏼 Just opening our front door allows a pleasant fragrant to drift ever so softly into the house reminding me that *spring is happening outside* 🌷 Zero regrets here about planting two ‘Daphne Odoras’ on either side of the stairs leading up to our home sweet home, enjoying their sweet scent for years to come 🏡 #daphneodora #fragrantplants #freedomflowers #localflowers #stanwoodwa #happyvalleyroad
Stumbled upon this stunning cultivar yesterday, an absolutely rare sight spotting a Palm Tree in the Pacific Northwest. Of course I had to follow suit adding to her collection of braids, clearly making her the most ornamental tree in the park. Do you know of the embellished braided palm in Snohomish County? First to ‘Find the Farmer’ will win a Dahlia tuber grab bag! Local pickup only. More hints in stories if you want to play along ☀️🐝 #freedomflowers #cutflowerfarm #snohomishcountyflowerfarmers
