alchemy - a seemingly magical process of transformation, creation or combination...

At Alchemy Farms we also create: medicinal herbal bouquets, edible bouquets and edible blossoms by the package to bring magic, color & beauty ~ to your everyday life, or to elevate your most precious and life changing moments.

Our flowers are organically grown with care for the soil. Flowers make everything more magical simply by their elegant and often whimsical presence. At Alchemy Farms we believe enjoying beautiful flowers and being wise stewards of the land go hand and hand.

Alchemy Farms is on a mission to bring more color, beauty and harmony to our community and to nourish your body, mind and spirit. You eat with your eyes first. And it is true, we are what we eat…so why not explore the wonder of eating some of the most beautiful and glorious foods on our planet…flowers.

We know that consuming foods from a rainbow palette of colors brings a spectrum of nutrients. Adding flowers can also bring a spectrum of energies and tastes that are simply not available in any other foods.

So, if you’ve only tried nasturtiums...which are spicy, you are in for a treat. From delicately sweet bee balm and bachelor’s buttons blossoms to chocolate flavored daisy stamens we have a medley of colors and flavors!!

It’s important to note that not all flowers are edible. Commercially grown flowers should never be consumed. The commercial cut flower industry is one of the most toxic industries.

We aspire to herald in a new paradigm with our flower choices and we invite you to experience the magic of Alchemy Farms.

When you purchase edible flower blossoms we recommend that you pluck the petals when you are ready to serve your dish. Please keep them refrigerated until you are going to consume them.

Flavors vary greatly even within one type of flower, depending on the weather and their color you will find variation. There truly is nothing like eating a salad adorned with a spectrum of radiant colors.

We hope you enjoy some soon! Some of the flowers we grow are pictured here….Enjoy!
