FAQ
A Community Supported Agriculture (CSA) share for a flower farm offers members the opportunity to enjoy a regular supply of fresh, locally grown flowers. Participants purchase a share of the flower farm's seasonal harvest in advance, creating a direct connection between the community and the farm. Throughout the growing season, CSA members receive a diverse bouquet of freshly harvested flowers, showcasing the vibrant colors and fragrances of each season. This model not only provides individuals with beautiful and sustainable blooms but also fosters a sense of community engagement and support for local agriculture. CSA shares for flower farms contribute to sustainable farming practices, reduce the environmental impact of long-distance flower transportation, and bring the beauty of the farm directly to the homes of community members.
