November 17, 2019 By Nicole Leave a Comment

Over the past few weeks I have been digging, curing and packing up Dahlia Tubers for winter storage. Once I see how many tubers we have, I start making edits to the store as to what will be available. This year we are excited to bring to you new varieties we haven’t had in the […]

They purchased our farm flowers in bulk to have friends design the centerpieces.  This is a common request. They filled local beer […]
