Meet the Flower farm
Located in Trenton, Fl, on a “rolling” 1 acre field, Fleurtini is part of the micro farming movement; growing on small plots of land but maximizing productivity.
Our team includes myself (Rachel), my husband (Chris), and the many friends and family we have on retainer (payment in the form of love and friendcation weekends) to help us along the way.
Our field is new to flowers, just as we are, but every season we continue to invest in the soil, time, and research, to produce amazing long lasting flowers.
We started in 2022 with a small patch of ranunculus that quickly died because I had no idea that growing in Florida was completely different than the rest of the country. I learned from my mistakes and continued to trial in 2023 continuing to fail.
But finally, March of 2024, we finally sold our first bouquet and opened our roadside stand to the public. We are continuing to grow our group of supports and add more varieties of flowers every season. We hope you become a fan of Fleurtini Flower Bar and join the many who are flower fans.

Meet the Farmer-Florist
Like in the book, Alice stumbled her way through Wonderland and found herself upon a large flower-bed of talking flowers while trying to follow the white rabbit. I too followed my own white rabbit, chasing a career down a path I thought I wanted, until one day I realize I was falling down a rabbit hole I didn’t want to be in. Needless to say, I took a step towards another direction and discovered a new path.
When we purchased our property a year before leaving my career, I had no idea I would use the open pasture for flowers. Gazing out to the open field one day, I realized I could do something right at home. Vegetables was the first thing that popped in my head, but it didn’t excite me. Then one day I was shopping for a bouquet online for my sister’s birthday, and I found a shop that sold their own home grown flowers. At that moment all the colors filled my head and I took off running from there.
An artist at heart, I always wanted to pursue something that would let me express myself creatively. Flowers are the vibrant colors that appear on the natural landscape canvas. Every bouquet is a work of art that I can share with my community.
Thank you for visiting my website and I hope I get to share my wonderful flowers with you soon.
