So neither he who plants nor he who waters is anything, but only God who gives the growth.

1 Corinthians 3:7

Cottage Blooms

We are a small sustainably run flower farm located in Palmyra, Va.  We provide high-quality seasonal cut flowers to florists, floral designers, and wholesalers in the Charlottesville and Richmond areas. We also provide market bouquets to local retailers, bulk buckets for DIY weddings and events, and a monthly flower subscription starting in May.

Flowers are available on a seasonal basis from May through October. Every single flower we produce is hand planted, lovingly tended to, and harvested in its prime without harsh or harmful chemicals.

Our growing area is approximately 2 acres, which sounds small, but we can plant an incredible number of plants in the space. We use a heated high-tunnel and greenhouse in our seasonal operation. Our focus is to grow high-quality, long-lasting cut flowers. I feel extremely grateful to be able to grow and share something as beautiful and powerful as flowers with our local community.
