Hours:

Monday through Saturday from 8am to 6pm will be self-serve at a cost of only $10

Tuesday, Thursday, & Friday from 1pm to 6pm  at our shop you can purchase a large container if you would like to pick a larger bouquet or a Mommy and Me .  Mommy and me , an adult will get a large container and any child under 12 will get a $10 container to pick with.

More details below:

How do you “do” a u-pick flower garden?  Well, there are two ways.  Self-serve happens from 8am to 6pm Monday, Wednesday, & 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) and 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 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 too):

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 garden so others can take pictures and enjoy the view of the garden.  Feel free to take as many personal photos that you like .  We would also enjoy 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 so excited to bring this new opportunity to our local community and surrounding areas!  Many more details will be coming soon.

This summer at EBMY Farm is going to be exciting!  We are hosting a series relaxing events and concerts that will feed the mind, body, and soul with beautiful sounds, scents and tastes.  Below are some details of the many events we have planned.

Join us on Sunday mornings for sounds in the flower garden with Jennifer of Ascension Energy and Sounds. Relax and enjoy the euphoric peace with Tibetan/Crystal bowls, chimes, bells, wave drums, rain sticks and more.  Light refreshments will be served afterwards, as well as an opportunity to walk amongst our gardens and pick your own bouquet or grab a pre-arranged one.

Brunch & Bunch events will also be Sundays this summer.  These 2 hour events will start with a farm to table brunch followed by time in the 8,000 sq. ft. flower garden to pick and choose flowers to build and arrange a beautiful bouquet. If you do not want to arrange your own, there will be prearranged bouquets ready for you to take home.

We will also host workshops on how to build a floral centerpiece.  These 2 hour workshops will begin with a demonstration and review tips about each variety of flower and then each participant will have time to spend in the garden to collect their flowers.  We will then work together to build your own centerpiece and bring some beauty to your home.  Refreshing treats will also be served.

In case of bad weather, your fee can be applied towards another upcoming scheduled sound event, any art related event, or one of our farm products. Space is limited, so reserve your spot soon!
