So excited about our webinar! Here's a sneak peek at some of the cut flowers Thanu is growing at Farmer's on 57th that we'll talk about. We'll talk about the sensual beauty of flowers and the politics of growing local bouquets instead of shipping them in airplanes from across the world. We'll discuss Thanu's passion for growing flowers and her recent projects using flowers to make statements that go beyond beautification.  And learn some tips on how to grow your own favourite flower arrangements.


Glorious, fragrant sweet peas. My favourite!


Sneezeweed with a snoozing yellow-headed bumble bee!


Crinkly poppies in stunning shades of mauve.


Carrot flowers with tiny red florets.


Candy-striped cosmos with  sleepy leafcutter boys.


Bunny tail grass that sways in the wind.


Verbena bonariensis--elegant stems and delicate purple florets.


Dahlias for all occasions!


 Lovely scabiosa!
