First Winnicut River Farm Bouquet


O.k. not ALL of these flowers are from seeds or transplants I sowed. But most are, including the snapdragons, rudbeckia, celosia, and gomphrema. Zinnias, cosmos, sunflowers, and (a few) dahlias are about to bloom.
My hope is to prepare the farm for growing and selling cut flowers. And the goal for next year is to produce flowers from May through November in preparation for selling the following year. It's fascinating hard-work but being surrounded by beautiful blossoms is clearly a huge perk!
