Support local CT farms? Say it with flowers

To me, having fresh flowers every week would be the epitome of luxury and glamour.

Pictured here a bouquet from Eddy Farm in Newington I picked up as part of my 2020 CSA share.

⁠What if this luxury was accessible, more affordable than the local flower shop, and came with benefits for pollinators, farmers, and the local economy?

So I asked the CT floral community, which Connecticut farms are offering CSA flower subscriptions?⁠

Here's where to sign up for a summer's worth of CT blooms:⁠

In central CT:⁠

Eddy Farm, Newington ⁠

Curlytail Farms, East Hampton⁠

Beets and Blooms Farm, East Hampton⁠

In western CT: ⁠

Appleberry Farm, Newtown (and North Stamford)⁠

In eastern CT:⁠

Bouquets and Blueberry Gardens, Windham Center⁠

Giroux Farm, Vernon⁠

You can also support local Connecticut farms and find CT-grown stems during public hours at Connecticut Flower Collective located in Meriden, and at local farmers' markets throughout the state.⁠

 

Do you know of other CT-grown flower subscriptions? Please let me know so I can keep this article updated - tap the Contact page.
