From tobacco fields to flower fields.

A woman shopping for flowers at a flower stand named 'Pleasant Farms Flowers.' The stand has various colorful flowers in metal buckets with labels like 'Mixed Bouquet $15' and 'Peonies $6.' The woman is smiling, holding a bunch of pink flowers, and wearing a striped sleeveless top and denim shorts. The flower stand is outdoors with greenery in the background.

Our story

I'm growing flowers on my grandparents' farm — land that once grew tobacco, now bringing something new to life. I didn't grow up farming. Everything I know, I've learned by doing: trial, error, and a lot of dirt under my fingernails.

Locally grown flowers have always brought me joy. They're never quite the same twice — they shift with the season and the soil, and there's always a new favorite to look forward to as the year turns.

Full bloom, again

I started flower farming back in 2018 as a side project, running a flower trailer to pop-up markets while working full-time. I met so many wonderful people along the way. Then life took a turn — I stepped back for a few years to spend time with my kids — but I never stopped missing the fields.

Now I'm back, and more excited than ever to bring locally grown flowers to more of North Carolina, right from the same land where it all started.
