Hello and welcome!

I’m Carolyn, owner and grower at Swoon Local Blooms. I’m located in Barrington RI, a small gem of a coastal town in growing zone 7a. I have always loved everything about growing flowers—from propagation to nurturing seedlings through to handing off a bundle of the most beautiful blooms to others.

I’ve been growing specialty cut flowers such as dahlias and hellebores for over twenty years, sharing with friends and neighbors along the way. The way people light up when they receive the gift of flowers is absolutely magical, and I started Swoon to be able to witness even more of that. Sustainability is also at the core of our mission to provide our neighbors with fresh, unique, locally grown flowers.

Our offerings are evolving. This year we are offering spring and fall bouquet subscriptions created from some of the most special and hard-to-find flowers, fall-planted bulb sales, and spontaneous pop-up sales of bouquets. In the future, we plan to offer wholesale flowers to florists, workshops, and more! To learn about these offerings, please visit our contact page and sign up for our newsletter.
