In this episode of The Backyard Bouquet Podcast, Jennifer sits down with Jessica Hall, co-founder of Harmony Harvest Farm in Virginia's Shenandoah Valley. What began as a simple question during a family beach vacation—"Where do florists get flowers?"—sparked the beginning of a 20-acre flower farm that now ships bouquets and heirloom chrysanthemum plants across the country. Jessica shares how she, her sister, and their mom grew their passion into a thriving business rooted in sustainability, technology, and a whole lot of heart. From saving the last U.S.-based flower frog manufacturer to building a farm that blends heritage blooms with modern tools, this is a conversation full of wisdom and inspiration. Whether you're just getting started in the garden, knee-deep in flower farming, or dreaming of building something special with your family, Jessica's story is packed with real-life lessons, encouragement, and the kind of flower talk that makes you want to dig in and grow. 🌸 Highlights from the episode: * How a family conversation led to launching Harmony Harvest Farm * The power of mentorship and why it's worth investing in * What makes heirloom chrysanthemums so special—and how to grow them * Behind the scenes of their flower frog business, Floral Genius * Using tech tools to manage a high-volume flower operation 🛒 Shop flowers, chrysanthemums, and flower frogs: hhfshop.com [https://hhfshop.com/] 📸 Follow along: https://www.instagram.com/harmonyhrvst/ Show Notes: https://thefloweringfarmhouse.com/2025/04/10/ep-53-growing-a-cut-flower-business-with-heirloom-chrysanthemums/ 📌 Please Subscribe to The Backyard Bouquet Podcast for more flower farming insights! 🌼 Join The Dahlia Patch Waitlist Ready to grow your best dahlias yet?
