Our cut flowers began their beautiful debut for the season as we welcomed the onset of summer on Monday. This week we are happy to be cutting the first of our snapdragons, Benary giant zinnias, larkspur, ageratum and more, for beautiful cut flower bouquets.

Our bouquets will last a long time because they are carefully cut, properly conditioned and kept cold for you. Each bouquet comes with a packet of flower food to give you a full week of enjoyment.

You can find us on this week at Hattie’s Garden on Thursday and Friday from 2 to 5, at the Garden Shack Farmers Market on Thursday from 2 to 6, and at the Historic Lewes Farmers Market (HLFM) on Saturday from 8 to 12. If these times/dates do not work for you, please email Hattie to make other arrangements.
