"Growing flowers you don't find in your supermarket"

The 3-year-old Shelton flower farm Stone Gardens Cut Flowers works alongside the family-run Stone Gardens Farm and offers Connecticut home grown vegetables, meat, and poultry along with a flower CSA which runs from mid-July to mid-September.

The flowers you don't typically find in your local supermarket, explained Katelyn Kazukynas. "That's because conventional flowers have been bred and processed to survive travelling thousands of miles, bathed in preservatives and fungicides, before they reach your hands." The durability comes at a major expense, she said, with flowers losing scent, variety, color, and freshness.

This spring Stone Gardens will have many new varieties of Sweet Peas, Anemones, Ranunculus, and specialty daffodils.
