Long before I was a flower farmer, ranunculus were my favorite spring flower! I loved buying bunches and bunches of them to display on my kitchen table. Now that I grow them I can share all that I’ve learned along the way!
During this in depth, in-person, on farm workshop I’m going to teach you all my tips and tricks for growing these beautiful flowers in our climate for your own gardens!
Have you struggled to grow ranunculus in the past or perhaps you’ve always wanted to grow them but don’t know where to start? Are you a new flower farmer and want to get some hands on learning before you jump into the wholesale investment? Do you have a farmstand or want to add these to your CSA?
