As my co-workers leave for their annual summer vacations, I, too am taking a (mental) vacation to Sun Valley's most southern-located farm in sunny Baja. In this dream, the weather is balmy, and I'm sipping an ice-cold drink as I stroll through fields of growing sunflowers…
Reality is not too far from my dreams. Our Baja farm is Rainforest Alliance Certified and is indeed a sunflower-centric operation; every year we continue to bring you the colorful classics–mahogany, teddy bear, black-eyed, green-eyed, and red sunflowers show their faces in shops, weddings, and arrangements across the country.
If sunflowers aren't enough to make you feel like you're on vacation, the colorful crops of Snapdragons and Amazon Dianthus (our second biggest Baja producers) sure will. All of these, including the southern staples of Solidago, Stock, and Tissue Culture Statice, are firmly in our wheelhouse; we have offered these varieties as simple bunches and mixed bouquets for years now.
