The Homesteader's Guide to Cut Flowers: Growing Beautiful, Versatile Blooms for Pantry, Pleasure & Profit
From urban patios to rural homesteads, learn to cultivate versatile flowers that beautify your space while doubling as culinary herbs, healing plants, and craft materials.
Flower farming has seen a recent surge of interest, largely due to social media and the presence of idolized flower farmers, such as Washington State's Floret. Most home gardeners already grow several types of flowers for landscape and ornamental purposes, so the thought of having fresh, beautifully displayed, homegrown bouquets for sale and offering You-Pick flower operations on a new level is enticing to many home growers.
The majority of cut flowers have multi-purpose qualities--gardeners and homesteaders can choose varieties that are not just aesthetically pleasing but also have uses as culinary herbs, medicinal tinctures, pigments for eco-dyeing, and in dried arrangements for décor, art, and jewelry. Many of these plants can also be easily grown in pots for flower lovers living in the city. Joanna Blessing of Olde Soul Acres invites readers to dive deeper into intentionally growing cut flowers and enjoying the fruits of their labor. She covers the ins and outs of planning a garden that will promote a thriving, sustainable ecosystem, as well as how to harvest and arrange cut flowers and how a home gardener can scale up to bring a monetary profit to their homestead. Chapters cover:
- Assessing your garden space and resources
- Selecting versatile varieties of cut flowers
- Building relationships with local markets and florists
- 21 recipes for edible flowers, tinctures, floral teas, desserts, and more
- 18 crafts and projects using your flowers
"If you've ever dreamed of stepping outside to a bloom-filled backyard that nourishes both soul and pantry, this book is your guide to success! I walked away with not only a planting plan for my new fabric dying flower garden but also a renewed love for the land and what's possible with just a handful of seeds." --Victoria Pruett, author of Creating a Modern Homestead
