About me

My name is Angelina Hellar, I started Formosa Flower Farm in 2019 on a very small scale, and have grown little by little every year. Growing sustainably with intention is my highest priority. Flower farming has been a wonderful creative outlet for me, a way to blend my passion for farming, the wildness of nature, and my love for art and creation all in one. I am so excited to share with you the happiness and beauty of my local flowers!

WHY FRESH SUSTAINABLY GROWN, LOCAL FLOWERS?

So many of the flowers we see sold in supermarkets and flower shops come from far away places, most of the time shipped from out of the country using tons of fossil fuels. These flowers are grown with chemicals and pesticides which are harmful to the land, the environment and the workers. When buying local, responsibly grown flowers, you are supporting your local economy and also helping to replenish sustainable and organic agricultural practices in your community. Here are some ways to use fresh, local, sustainable flowers in your life!
