BOUQUET AL FRESCO. Amber loves creating vintage-inspired vignettes using thrifted treasures-which show off Liam's edible art perfectly.
EARLY BLOOMER. Strawberries are the first fruit to ripen in the spring, and just 1 acre of land can produce 50,000 pounds of strawberries!
Blogger and music teacher Amber Ferguson and her son, Liam, created a fresh, fun way to have flowers and eat them too!"We asked Amber to share how this delicious work of art came to be:

16-year-old son, Liam, is a super-talented young chef-in-progress, and he's planning to attend culinary school after he graduates. He has been cooking at our local country club for several months—which has been a wonderful experience for him as a he develops his natural aptitude and passion for the culinary arts while gaining skills for his future career. When I asked him if he had a gluten-, dairy- and egg-free strawberry recipe idea, he surprised me by suggesting strawberry roses.
"I wasn't exactly sure what Liam's strawberry roses would look like, so I asked him to make a couple for me on a trial run. He had recently been experimenting with making strawberry roses with unused strawberries from a fruit platter he had made for a party at the country club and produced the prettiest strawberry roses. His knack for creating edible art was in full bloom! I was pleasantly surprised and proud!"
