Upcoming Events

I am thrilled to announce that the farm will be open to the public for the first time this season. Last year, I expanded the farm on a beautiful plot in Califon, NJ. Moving my growing operation from my home residence to this space has allowed me to expand my ever-growing obsession with dahlias! It was a big move and this season, we planted over 2,500 tubers. September and October are when the dahlias really are in their glory.

We have spent countless hours shaping this property into what it is today. We ask that guests honor this. If damage is done to our plants, we will have to reconsider opening the farm to the public.

Guided Tour:

Dahlia Cutting Garden

The garden will be open for the month of September showcasing all the beautiful cultivars I have grown, thanks to my many helping hands this season.

Details:

Join me for a 1.5 hour guided cutting tour in the dahlia patch where you’ll cut blooms for a stunning 10-15 stem bouquet (included in ticket price). Want even more blooms? You can harvest as many blooms as you’d like for $6 a stem.

What We Provide:

Fresh water to keep your blooms hydrated - dahlias do best when hydrated right after the plant has been cut.

What You Should Bring:

A sturdy bucket for your blooms.
Snips to cut your blooms. Scissors are not adequate. We will have professional ARS clippers, the same that we use in the field, available to purchase for $25.
Reminder: make sure you dress appropriately for this event. Boots or closed- toe shoes, and pants are recommended. The fields are often wet in the mornings.
