USDA Certified Organic Flower Bouquets


Our farm store has fresh USDA Certified Organic Mixed Flower and Sunflower bouquets. The flowers are harvested and bouquets are made on Tuesday mornings and will be available in the farm store on Tuesday afternoons.
We also harvest flowers on Friday mornings. Bouquets are available at the farm store and at the Litchfield Hills Farm Fresh Market on Saturday's from 10am-1pm.
While bouquets last!
Keep your flowers fresher longer with our Flower Power Recipe:
  • 1 tbsp. sugar (food source)
  • 1 tsp. bleach (anti-bacterial)
  • 1 tsp. lemon juice or vinegar (lowers pH & aids in water uptake)

Thoroughly mix above ingredients in vase of water. Re-cut stems using a knife to avoid smashing stem. Change water and re-cut stems every few days.

*Priscilla Russo and her husband Lou are CSA "work shares" at the farm. When they are not on the farm, they run Russo Photography together. Priscilla has been kind enough to share some of her photos with us for our website and blog. Thank you Priscilla and Lou!
