Dried Flowers: A Timeless Beauty

At Honest Desires Farm, we grow flowers with a purpose: to dry beautifully and last for years to come. Our main crop is made up of varieties selected specifically for their drying qualities—harvested at just the right moment to preserve color, shape, and texture.

With proper care, dried flowers are everblooming. They don’t wilt, they don’t fade quickly, and they carry the season’s beauty long after the garden rests.

Most of our harvest is used in our botanical art pieces and hands-on workshops, but when we have extra stems, we offer them for sale in small seasonal batches. Our dream is to one day grow enough to offer wholesale dried flowers, and to help ensure dried blooms never go out of style.

Dried flowers are low-maintenance, but they do appreciate a little love:

• Keep them out of direct sunlight to prevent fading
• Avoid humid areas like bathrooms or kitchens
• Gently dust with a soft brush or air blower
• Handle with care—dried stems are delicate

With these simple steps, your flowers can last for years and continue to bring joy season after season.

Dried blooms are incredibly versatile. Here are a few favorite ways to use them:

• Bouquet preservation – frame your wedding or event flowers as lasting keepsakes
• Seasonal arrangements – swap out fresh florals for dried stems in vases, wreaths, or garlands
• Craft projects – use in resin art, pressed flower cards, or handmade gifts
• Decor accents – tuck into shelves, mantels, or table settings for a touch of nature
• Educational kits – perfect for homeschoolers and curious kids to explore botany hands-on

We believe dried flowers are more than a trend—they’re a timeless way to celebrate the beauty of each season.
