Connect with Winnie Pitrone:

Winnie has been growing cut flowers on the Mendocino Coast in partnership with her husband, Andy Mackey, since 1992.  They are small-scale, bio-intensive horticulturists following their flower passion, emphasizing detail and diversity. They believe that the purity of method, gardening exclusively with hand labor and hand tools, is reflected in the quality of what they produce.
