How do you “do” a U-pick flower garden? Well, there are two ways.  Self-serve happens from 8 am – 6 pm Monday- Saturday.  Start at the yellow flower shack in the open field at 15375 E Erie Rd.  You will see plenty of parking and picnic tables to sit and arrange your flowers.  In the shack, there will be a jar for your cash payment or a QR Code if you would like to use a credit card.  FYI, there is a small service fee to use credit.  The cost is only $10.  Grab a jar (only one size),  enter the flower field, and enjoy picking.  When your flowers are to your liking, wrap your flowers in a wet paper towel, grab a flower sleeve, and put your flowers in it.  Then leave your jar and clippers for the next person to use.

We will also have a small self-serve refrigerator loaded with beverages.  If you would like a drink, please put your payment in the jar or scan the QR code and grab a beverage of your choice.

We are also excited to offer our garden for your next photo op.  Professional photographers will also need to check in at the farm store and pay to enter the garden.  Special times can be arranged to have sole access to the gardens.

Here are a few guidelines (they will also be posted with Farmer Don at the garden’s entrance  ):

1. Please do not trample the flowers and stay on the paths.

2. We recommend cutting long flower stems.  This will encourage the plant to produce more stems and will provide you with greater flexibility with your flower arrangement.

3. You can certainly bring your dog to the farm as long as it is very friendly with other dogs and people.  However, your dog can not enter the flower garden, so they do not trample the flowers.

4. We do not use pesticides and are happy to share our flowers with local bees, butterflies, and pollinator insects, so please use caution if you are allergic.

5. Plan to dress comfortably (sunglasses, hat, sunscreen, appropriate shoes for uneven ground) and keep hydrated.

6. When arranging your bouquet,  strip the leaves off the stems that are below the water line, this will help the longevity of your flowers.

7. If you need to use a restroom, it is located on the farmhouse side near the farm store.

8. Please park back away the from garden so others can take pictures and enjoy the view of the garden.  Feel free to take as many personal photos as you like.  We would also enjoy it if you would like to share them on Facebook or Instagram.

9. Tips, It is best to pick your flowers early in the morning or later in the afternoon.  Also picking flowers that are not all the way open will help their longevity.

We are excited to bring this new opportunity to our local community and surrounding areas!  Many more details will be coming soon.
