One of the most interesting aspects of a local flower farm is the ability to appreciate each flower in its rightful season. This adds a level of freshness that cannot be rivaled. This can be seen in each flower's extended vase life and fragrance that are harvested from our farm. Smelling a fresh Peony in spring just feels right, as is seeing the vibrant colors of a Sunflower in late summer.
Most people don't know that most cut flowers are shipped into the U.S. from Holland, Central/South America, and Israel. By the time they fly across the ocean and get on a truck headed for delivery to the middle of the country, they have already lost their fragrance and a portion of their vase life. The benefit of being a local farm is we get to avoid all the bumps and bruises that occur in shipping. Nor do we have to douse our flowers in chemicals sprayed to maintain color and the appearance of freshness.
However the downside to a local flower farm means we can not offer red roses 365 days a year, but there are other beautiful varieties that are in bloom on our farm throughout various times of the year. We do offer some of the more common varieties, but we also offer some local, and unique varieties that you can not get from your average retail grocery store. Take a look below and see what would work for you.

“And all at once, summer collapsed into Fall.”
― Oscar Wilde
FALL
September - November
​
When fall finally arrives at our farm it brings us a much-needed reprieve from the Summer heat and hungry bugs. In fall, our farm is marked with various shades of oranges, reds, yellows, purples, and browns. Whether it's the random purple coneflower in our ditches, the black-eyed Susans in our pastures, or the Dahlias/ Sunflowers blooming late in our flower garden, fall is a more relaxing and joyful time on our farm.
