Zinnias Are Here! More Than Just Pretty Flowers
This week’s harvest is bursting with fresh, vibrant Zinnia bouquets, and while they look stunning in a vase, did you know these blooms have a whole range of hidden benefits?
Zinnias are gorgeous and they’re also:
🌿 Skin Allies
Zinnia petals are rich in antioxidants and can be blended into DIY salves, facial steams, or natural bath soaks for gentle hydration and anti-aging properties.
🍽️ Edible and Decorative
Add a pop of color to salads, cakes, or charcuterie boards with their edible petals.
🎨 Creative Muses
Press them for art, use them in handmade cards, or turn them into natural fabric dyes.
Zinnia flower essences are even said to encourage joy and playfulness. And they will be available this Saturday at the Fresh Market.
First come, first snipped!
