Recently we have been selling our flowers to Whole Foods, both the one in Dublin and the one in Upper Arlington. We read about another farmer in Texas who was selling to them and thought we would give it a try. So, after about a months worth of paperwork, we were on our way and still going strong! They not only buy our sunflowers and other mixed bouquet flowers, but they buy my mixed bouquets and sell them in the store. Soon, we will have a little sign with our picture and information up at the Upper Arlington store so people will be able to associate our flowers directly with us and our farm. Whole Foods does a great job at supporting the local farmer and it allows us the opportunity to reach more clients since we do not do farmer's markets in that area. We started with them kind of late in the season this year, but look forward to providing again for them next year too! Hopefully we will get people hooked on our flowers. I always say FOOD MAY FEED THE BODY, BUT FLOWERS FEED THE SOUL!
