Regular greenhouse hours, for the 2011 growing season, have ended.
We will be at the Richfield Springs Farmer's Market
on Saturday mornings from 8:00 to 1:00.
The market is held in Spring Park - across from the Richfield Springs Post Office on
Route 20.
Thank you for a good season!

A small operation where everything is home grown and usually started from seed.
We like to try unusual, old fashion or heirloom annuals*, as well as fragrant plants, moon garden flowers,
and vines. We also grow heirloom tomatoes and vegetables, as well as standard varieties. Our perennials
include Hollyhocks, Lupine, Foxglove, and others. Also, perennial & annual herbs.
Our size limits the number of plants that we grow and varieties change each year.
We also do custom growing and special orders if given enough notice.
* As defined by Select Seeds of
Union, CT : "Antique or heirloom flowers are open-pollinated varieties that originated fifty or more years ago.
Open-pollinated flowers are fertilized by insects, hummingbirds or wind, and the resulting seed will produce plants that are
identical or very similar to the parent plant. Many antique flowers are hard-to-find heirloom flowers, passed from one
generation to another."
Look through the site to view some of the plants that we're growing.
| Hoping to look like this is a few months! |
