Looking for flower cutting gardens?

I am looking for flower cutting gardens, a place to cut fresh flowers, usually for a nominal fee. thank you.
Looking for flower cutting gardens?
Finding this information seems to be impossible without knowing the area you live in.

The only information that comes up is how to plan a cutting garden or how to use the flowers you get from a cutting garden. Perhaps with a location some possible places would come up.



Additional:

Thank you for telling me that you are looking for locations in the Midwest--that's where I'm from, too!



Here's what I found:



One really helpful place online is a search engine to find organic farms by location. You can also specify a product (in this case "flowers") and it will give results for that. It can be found at:

For pick-your-own farms

in south and central Illinois, including flowers:
