Shouldn't flowers be local, healthy and farm-fresh, too? 

As locally-sourced foods gain popularity, we sense a greater need for, and interest in, locally cultivated, chemical free flowers. After all, you're putting them in your home and on your table, and burying your nose in them from time to time.

To help keep home, table, and nose nourished with the beauty and fragrance of fresh flowers, Rathvinden cultivates over 300 species of plants, using sustainable and regenerative practices such as cover cropping, crop rotation, reduced tillage, beneficial insects, and composting. We are not organic certified but we do use organic practices and inputs. We are attempting to go beyond organic - our mission is to create a farm that is also an ecosystem, one that builds living soil, cleans water and air, incorporates wildlife, and keeps us all healthy. We would like to contribute to a network of farmers, one where small farms help each other, and one that bolsters and supports those who want to farm.

Rathvinden is a farm, home, sanctuary, and experiment, in which we test whether local flowers can be produced commercially with practices that increase the health, beauty, sustainability, and livability of the farm and our community, rather than detract from them.

We grow flowers, herbs, fruits, vegetables, and farmers in our fields, tunnels, greenhouses, and meadow. We are located in the Springhill Community, below the Bridger mountains, north of Bozeman.

Sometimes our flowers are not perfect, which makes them perfect. We believe in the beauty of wildness, boldness, complexity, surprise, and vitality.
