Today my guest is Emily von Trapp and her business is von Trapp Flowers located it Waitsfield Vermont. Emily is the third generation to grow and cultivate on her family’s land and has been selling sustainably grown flowers in Central Vermont for over 25 years. I have to admit that I was amazed at the amount of flowers she produces and I’m thrilled to have Emily this week on The Flower Podcast.

Emily von Trapp is a year round flower farmer and this year she will sustainably grows over 175,000 specialty winter tulips, in addition to many varieties of annual and perennial cut flowers in Waitsfield, Vermont. The daughter of a horticulturist and self-taught master gardener, she grew up surrounded by her parents' gorgeous gardens and blooms at the von Trapp Greenhouse. She has been selling sustainably grown seasonal flowers in the form of Market Bouquets to markets in Central Vermont for over 25 years. Emily sells her flowers to 15 markets and shops throughout Central Vermont and also through a Winter Tulip Bouquet CSA.
