I would like to convert my front yard into a free cut flower garden open to the public. I will have a minimal fence to keep bunnies out, but signage to welcome neighbors in and share the rules. I will have basic scissors and shears available in the garden so anyone can come and clip a bouquet.

I hope that neighbors will use this to save money on wedding flowers, gifts to cheer up a friend, funerals, showers, and a free date night activity. The garden would be planned to have both filler and focal point flowers, with a variety of bloom times. There will also be many types of plants to attract pollinators.

Flowers are a universal gift of love and that is certainly something we all could use more of these days.
