Hello everyone!

My name is Jessica and I’m the founder and farmer behind Iron Meadows Flower Farm, located in Buckley, IL. I’ve always been a huge flower lover and it’s been so much fun turning my passion into a business.

Five years ago my husband and I bought a place in rural central Illinois with a 1 acre field that had previously been used for growing conventional corn/soy beans. We were trying to decide what we wanted to put out there. After I spent 5 months working in Alaska as a travel nurse, I discovered flower farming and how well it would not only fit that empty field, but my lifestyle moving forward.

2023 was one of the craziest growing seasons to date. We may have only completed 4 growing seasons but this year’s drought, pest pressure, and flooding is definitely  one for the books! Looking forward to 2024 as we continue to expand our wholesale florists offerings to downtown Chicago and Northwest Indiana.

Why Natural?

Flowers are gorgeous and fleeting pieces of beauty that can be brought into one’s home, or held for hours in a beautiful bouquet on someone’s most special day in their life. Why would any farmer or customer want to buy flowers that are covered in unhealthy synthetic chemicals? …They wouldn’t!

Here at Iron Meadows we use natural pest control and weed control practices. We try to only use OMRI certified organic fertilizers and pesticides.  We also hand weed with special tools, use weed membrane, and companion plant to further reduce weeds and pests.

It is so important to us that the flowers you are going to bring into your home to be smelled and touched by children and pets is as natural and safe as possible!
