Local and In Season!

I love to pick my own flowers. Around here, the local farms grow zinnias and sunflowers, in July and August. AND the best part is...you get to pick them yourself! They are the perfect flowers for summer weddings because they come in a variety of bright colors, they hold up well in the summer heat, they have a large bloom so you don't need a ton of them, and they fit just about any budget!

I picked these from Lewis Orchard in Poolesville, MD for only 30 cents per flower! Picture bunches of these in mason jars or metal watering cans, or single stems in bud vases of varying sizes. It would be super cute!
