Growing Wild Prairie!
Donation protected
Hi there! We’re Wild Prairie Flower Farm, an employee-owned urban-farm focused on regenerative & sustainable agriculture. We’re no-till, no-chemical, local & organic. We started our farm in Columbus OH in 2019 and officially opened our doors in spring of 2021. We’ve had a successful first year, however, in order to transition into the next phase of growth, ensuring our success for many years to come, we require a significant upgrade in our farm & business infrastructure. We’re asking for your support to help purchase the following:
- Greenhouse: $5,000
- Walk-In Cooler: $1,500
- Expanded Farm Area (new soil, seeds & plants): $2,000
- Tuber, corm, & dried-flower storage materials: $1000
- Delivery van & conversion materials: $10,000
- Other misc. farm equipment: $500
The greenhouse will help us start more seedlings earlier in the year, helping us to put more plants in the ground and overall produce more beautiful blooms. The walk-in cooler will help us store those blooms for longer, ensuring a longer vase life for when customers receive their flowers. We’re hoping to expand into roses and perennials next year, and need support purchasing the tons and tons of soil, seed, and seedlings to achieve those goals. Lastly, we want to get a van!! We’ve had so many requests for deliveries, and to make it worth our time we need to be ready to deliver IN BULK! Also, we’ll need a van to effectively transport flowers from farm to studio, and from studio to pop-up locations. Thank you so much for your support, can’t wait to see what the future holds!
