Visit Local Farmers Markets
Farmers markets are a great place to find locally grown flowers and farmers will be able to tell you about other farms in the area. Plus, you can see the flowers in person, meet friendly staff, and ask any questions you may have before deciding which farm to visit. Think of the market as the perfect jumping off point for your farm adventures.
Follow Us on Social
A lot of farms have a Facebook or Instagram page. But if you can’t find the one you want to follow, or need some help searching, follow us on social. We will re-post as many events as possible so you can visit your favorite farm near you.

Search Engines
Good ole searching. It works. Our only gripe with searching is that the results don’t always uncover current events. A lot of times the results read reviews that are historical and that can be a bummer to make a decision based on old information from an old review.
Anyway you find the freshest flowers on a farm is good with us. Enjoy your spring, and if you can, bring Mom. She’ll thank you and remember the day.
