PYO Summer  Season Report: August 18, 2026

Our 5th You-Pick flower season continues, and each week something new is blooming! The most-picked flower is, of course, the dahlia. But our perennial rows are open as well and the hydranges are putting on a show.

Wander the rows throughout our entire farm, stroll the blooms, and cut your own bouquet filled with the best of what’s in season. Whether you’re picking flowers for your kitchen table, a special occasion, or simply because they make you smile, there’s nothing quite like taking home blooms you picked yourself.

We’ve always believed in being an open, transparent farm and giving our customers the chance to experience more than just the farm store — to see the fields, the flowers, and the land that’s all part of what we do here. Bring your walking shoes, because there’s plenty of ground to cover.

Pick-Your-Own Tulips

Spring | A fleeting season

Each spring, our tulip fields awaken in waves of color — a brief but breathtaking moment on the farm. Wander the rows, take in the view, and gather your own stems straight from the field.

Tulip season is guided entirely by the weather, and the blooms last only a short time. When the fields open, we share updates through email and social media.

What to know:

  • Open mid-April through early May (weather dependent)

  • Bring clippers or borrow ours

  • No reservation required

It is one of the most beautiful times of the year — and it passes quickly.

You-Pick Cutting Garden **Now Open**

Summer through First Frost (Mid-July through October)

When summer settles in, the cutting garden begins its long season. Dahlias, zinnias, cosmos, sunflowers, and heirloom varieties unfold in succession, creating a living tapestry that changes week by week. Our perennials are also available to pick from.

Guests are invited to stroll the garden, select a container, and cut what fits. Whether you come for the solitude, a creative outing, or a simple bouquet for your kitchen table, the experience is unhurried and restorative.

How it works:

  1. Check in at the farm store

  2. Choose your container size (one-gallon pail or quart-size mason jar, or you can BYOB (Bring Your Own Bucket))

  3. Cut what fits

  4. Take home the beauty

We will provide fresh water, cutting snips, and instructions. No two visits are ever quite the same.

Pricing:

  • One gallon pail: $30 (return the pail to reuse on your next trip for $22)
  • Bring your own bucket (or reuse our one-gallon pail): $22
  • Bring your own one-quart mason jar: $12
  • Mason jars are available for purchase at $3+ each

*tax not included

Grab-n-go bouquets are also available for quick shopping!

Just bring your pail and the punch card each time and enjoy 5 fill-ups of flowers during the growing season (mid-July through October).  We will supply the snips and water.

Choose your stems. Follow your own palette. Move at your own pace.

It is both a bouquet and an experience.

Summer Bouquet CSA

Peak Summer

A professionally gathered bouquet, ready for pickup each week for six weeks during the height of summer bloom. Begins in August.

Each arrangement reflects what is most beautiful in the field at that moment — heirloom varieties, rich textures, and seasonal color palettes designed for the table.

An effortless way to bring the farm into your home.

If you prefer flowers waiting for you each week — join a CSA.
If you don’t want to miss tulip season — reserve early.

Tips & Tricks:

In the garden:

Cut the stems as long as you can at an angle, snipping at the “V” on the plant where the stem branches

Strip off all the leaves on the lower half of the stem – you don’t want any leaves in the water

There are buckets in the rows to discard excess leaves/stems

At the farm:

It’s a good idea to bring bug spray, and sunscreen, and wear comfortable walking shoes

Please be cautious of any irrigation hoses and be aware that the ground may be uneven in spots

Sorry, no dogs allowed in the cutting garden or at the farm

At home with your beautiful flowers:

Change the water daily

Re-cut the stems every couple of days, cut at an angle

Keep the flowers out of the sun and heat

Share your photos with us – we would love to see them!

Special Events

The flowers pull you in. The beef jerkey snacks are a must. Local forest pastured pork - locally made slim jims with different flavor options and grassfed beef stix too. Local fancy cheeses at the best prices around, I always grab a few when I shop. The beef. Chicken. Pork. Prepared meals. Raw milk on occasion. Gifts. This place is such a cool spot, at the same time a throw back to a general store but also meat and grocer, pick your own flower garden, with a modern upscale visit. Any time you visit the Litchfield area, be sure to stop in

Went here per a recommendation from a friend. Steak, sweet italian sausages and the beef snack stick were all delicious. I can’t wait to try the rest of the things we got and come back to try even more! 10000% recommend

My favorite place! A combination of a mini Trader Joe's plus an extensive garden center / nursery all in one! Eggs, milk, pastry, breads, as well as local honey, maple syrup and fresh meats and poultry. Seasonal beautifully stocked greenhouse, perennials, specimen trees and shrubs, in addition to mulch and fertilizer, compost and potting mix. And don't forget to stop by the back pens to see if there are any newborns at the farm! A very special country market.
