GARDEN CLUB
My dream for the flower farm is to create a space where others can experience not only the joy of cut flowers, but also the serenity of being outdoors, connecting with nature and getting your hands dirty. Not everyone who loves them has the space or the time to grow their own cut flowers. The Garden Club gives you the opportunity to enjoy walking the flower fields, as well as the tools you need to cut and create your own bouquets throughout the season. Each month during the growing season you'll be invited to join us at the farm for an exclusive farm tour discussing that month's blooms and farm tasks, as well as instruction on proper floral harvesting and care. This is the ultimate TREAT YOURSELF for the cut flower and outdoor enthusiast. Makes a great gift for Mother's Day, birthday or "just because" gift.
**We offer a limited number of Garden Club memberships each year**
