Nassau Free Library is excited to host Caitlin Horgan of Flora Flower Farm in Nassau NY. Caitlin is a flower farmer, beekeeper and floral designer with a passion for dahlias and a unique style inspired by the natural world. Her lush, garden-style florals are grown organically with a deep respect for the environment and sustainability and her stunning photography captures them beautifully. Preserving the environment and wildlife is at the heart of everything she does.  We will hear too about how she integrates social media, a website, and technology into her business, which includes a farm stand, CSA’s, farmers and holiday markets, wholesale blooms and wedding florals. Join us as Caitlin shares with us her journey from a career as a teacher to flower farmer and floral designer, helps us understand more about flower farming as a sustainable business, and takes us on a virtual tour through a year on her flower farm.
