Roughly sixty kilometers southwest of Paris lies the village of La Chéraille. Here, Keiko Nishida – a farmer’s florist, or a floral designer who sources her materials direct locally – lives on a large flower farm, using its flowers to create arrangements in a signature French natural style. She also shares her life in the French countryside via conventional and social media to eager audiences in Japan, where more and more people have gained an interest in living with flowers since the Covid-19 pandemic. This page-a-day book presents one photo with accompanying text for every day of the year, chronicling the author’s lifestyle and ideas for using flowers à la France, where flowers are a natural part of everyday life.
