US (MD): Local flowers getting more popular
To capitalize on the demand, the MDA and the Maryland Cut Flower Growers Association launched www.marylandgrownflowers.com. The site features 26 growers, including several in Carroll, such as Clear Ridge Nursery in Union Bridge, Stoney Acres and Two Boots Farm in Hampstead, Tierra Blooms in Taneytown, and Patchwork Dahlias in Westminster.
Users can search directories of local farms organized by county and browse photos of the types of flowers available by season, making it easy to find local, fresh-cut flowers for a wedding or for landscaping.
