How it all started…

What happens when two 3rd generation farmers pour their hearts into creating a space for people to gather, learn, and be inspired by the beauty of nature around them? You end up with… Farm Fresh Florals!

It all started in 2015 when Jen & Tyrell Gruninger made the move to pursue their dream of living on a farm. After two years of hard work converting a field in Leduc County into a livable space, it finally hit them – this new property could be so much more than just a home! Some farmers grow specialty crops, some farmers grow trees… Jen & Tyrell decided to grow flowers!

The rest is history as Jen’s horticultural expertise (a graduate of the University of Alberta Botanic Gardens Master Gardener Program) + Tyrell’s jack-of-all-trades know-how (he’s responsible for the construction and maintenance of all projects & venues on the farm) combined to make magic. Gardens were tilled & seeded, plant-beds were built, a fountain was installed, a shipping-container barn, greenhouse, and pergola were constructed + so much more!

You really have to see it for yourself to truly appreciate the farm’s beauty… Especially when the flower gardens are in bloom! Watch the video below to learn a bit more about how the seemingly crazy dream of a fresh-cut flower farm came to be…
