Farm Focus Friday 🌱⁠ From stunning dahlias to heirloom mums to sweet peonies, a bouquet of flowers is sure to brighten anyone’s day. For several of Virginia’s small growers, cut flowers have become more than a pick-me-up. ⁠ “We’re building a new agricultural resurgence off of the visual eye candy that flowers provide. You can draw someone in with a one-second image of a beautiful flower,” says Jessica Hall, owner and COO of Harmony Harvest Farm in Weyers Cave, Virginia.⁠ Hall operates 7 field acres of cut flowers and seven high tunnels with her sister, Stephanie, and mom, Chris. They grow more than 200 varieties of flowers, including their signature heirloom mums, anemones, ranunculus and more. @harmonyhrvst @va_agriculture⁠ 🌸 Read more about the farm in our bio link!⁠ 📷: Nicole Douglas
