The Farm, The Community & The Why

What Makes Our Flowers Different: SAFE + SCENTED + LOCAL

SAFE

Most people don’t realize that 70%+ of flowers sold in the U.S. aren’t grown here. They’re produced overseas in factory-like settings and treated with harsh chemicals — some so dangerous that workers are required to use birth control due to risks of birth defects. And even if a flower is grown organically abroad, it’s sprayed again when it enters the U.S.

That’s not the kind of flower we want on our table — and we know you don’t either.

Our flowers are grown using organic, earth-friendly practices, protecting our family, our team, our soil, our pollinators, and you. When you support domestic flower farms, you support safer flowers for everyone.

SCENTED

Farm-fresh flowers smell different — because they’re supposed to.
Many commercial flowers have lost their fragrance because breeders prioritize shipping durability, not scent.

Here on our farm, we grow nearly 10 varieties of garden roses, each with its own luxurious fragrance. We pair blooms with fresh herbs like basil, rosemary, and mint to create bouquets that awaken memories and fill your home with natural aroma. These aren’t “perfect” factory flowers — in our opinion, they’re better.

LOCAL

When you buy local flowers, you’re doing something powerful.
You’re supporting a Missouri family and local farm staff, reducing carbon emissions, eliminating plastic packaging, and helping support local bees and pollinators.

Ask your florist where their flowers were grown — you might be surprised.
When you choose Missouri-grown blooms, you choose freshness, sustainability, and community.

From all of us at Wheels 2 Fields:
Thank you for supporting local flowers.
