fall planting tips

I truly believe that a big key of my success as a flower farmer has been the ability to get a jump start on sales in the early spring.

behind the flowers
Hi, I'm katy!
In 2018 I started Hidden Springs Flower Farm as a side hustle to create a life that allowed me to be at home with my children while contributing to our family income and continuing to fulfill my creative side.
I knew NOTHING about flowers.
I knew NOTHING about business.
I knew NOTHING about sales.
But here I am six years later with a six-figure flower business.
It wasn't easy. I spent hundreds of hours researching, thousands of dollars in trial and error and I just wished I could talk to someone who had done what I wanted to do. If I could just pick the brain of a seasoned flower farmer who would take me "in the weeds" of the flower business...
Now that I've been through the weeds myself, I want to make it easier for you! Throughout my website, social media accounts and email subscription, you'll find resources and inspiration to grow your own cut flower business or beautiful hobby.
