We are Nicole and Tom, owners of Buds and Botanicals LLC. We are a boutique, micro cut flower “farm” located in the Pine Barrens of Tabernacle, NJ. With the ‘help’ of our boys Barney and Clyde, we are a two person-two dog team over here!

Nicole started this business in her mom’s backyard in 2020 but has since expanded to a 1.5 acre plot of her own! Nicole was inspired by her grandmother’s and mother’s love for gardening, and her father’s love for the outdoors. In 2020 Nicole’s father passed away from an aggressive form of bone cancer. Wanting to keep herself distracted during these difficult times, she decided to turn her hobby into a business. This is how Buds and Botanicals started. Nicole has worked full time in the greenhouse industry since 2017. From delivering cut flowers, working at the local garden center, being a head grower managing 20 acres, working at a florist, and now currently a plug sales rep helping other cut flower farmers, Nicole has seen all ends of the Horticulture industry. This industry is where she met Tom, and they joined forces to build this new business together.

While Nicole and Tom both work full time in the greenhouse industry today, their passion lies in their own business. Tom likes the mechanical and efficiency side of the farm where Nicole enjoys the floral design and business side of things, making them a great team! “Buds and Botanicals has become a fun outlet for us to spend time together outside and supply beautiful flowers to our community”.

Nicole and Tom grow an assortment of flowers, but their favorites include Ranunculus, Tulips, and Lisianthus.
