Many locals in our area ONLY buy our organic flowers, but we like to also make them available to folks around the country as an option to imports. Although many South American flower farms are rethinking their typical growing practices to make worker safety and the environment more of a priority, they are still a long way from organic. And, obviously, they are a long way from the United States! And many farms still don't seem to care about either the environment or worker safety, spraying toxic chemicals all over their crops as if it were pixie dust.
If you like to support our small organic farm, get free flowers, and help us get our flowers on the road, visit Kickstart and check out our project. You can also check out our farm at Home to learn more about our farm and our flowers or check out Back Bay Flower Co. on Facebook and become a fan.

I have a friend that owns a floral shop and may be interested in organic flowers from you. I'll check you out on FB and let her know you are there as well.
BTW, our group (see my sig) is on facebook, too. Hope to see you there! ; - )
