We have 1000 prairie, woodland, and wetland potted wildflowers which will be for sale at the farm on the last weekend of April and the first weekend of May. Sorry, but we do not handle any mail order sales.
A demonstration garden surrounds the sales area for your enjoyment and all hiking trails throughout the farm are open for exploration. All plants are established and growing in biodegradable pots and should grow well for you with reasonable care.
