Flower Gardens Are Magical
Flowers are visually stimulating. Growing them is creative. You’re thinking about size, and scale, and color. You’re thinking about patterns and depth. It’s an art, growing flowers. And we’re growing lots of flowers, more than three dozen varieties plus multiple colors, as well as culinary herbs and fillers. Harvesting flowers just before dawn, filling buckets and buckets, is a magical experience. Just you, your flowers and your labor. A couple of hours later you have an ocean of color ready to go to market. Early morning the bees are asleep on the flowers. Their wings slow down once it starts to get cold, and they are stuck on the flower all night. As you’re working, you’re watching these paralyzed bees wake up. They are calm. You can pick them up with your finger and set it on a flower you don’t need that day. It doesn’t harm the bee. Those are special moments. We Invite You to Experience the Flowers Sit on a bench and watch the blooms sway in the light breeze, inhale the scents, watch the bees. Take a walk in the flower garden and discover hidden secrets. Pick some flowers and filler then create your own bouquet. Ask about the varieties, how to cut the stems, how to keep your flowers fresh. We’re expanding into flowers and creating fun, hands-on experiences for our community. Look forward to PYO flowers, kids’ flower workshops, and flower walks for individuals living with dementia. In addition to pick-your-own bouquets of flowers, we will also be offering:

Memory Garden
Flower walks for individuals living with dementia can be magical. The flower garden is a sensory-rich, safe space designed to reduce anxiety, evoke memories and improve mood. Color, touch and scent can calm and ground us. We've experienced a loved one living with dementia going from scared all the time to being in the moment with the flowers. She was so filled with joy the whole time.
Kid's Flower Workshops
We will be hosting a series of workshops in the garden for kids. Topics and activities too could include, what makes healthy soil, insects & pests, making your own bouquet, bees and other pollinators, Of course, we'll finish with some of Kiss the Cow Farm's ice cream!
Note: summer schedule still to be finalized.
