Our Subscriptions: Homegrown Flowers, Every Season

Our 6-week bouquet subscriptions celebrate locally grown flowers year-round, following the natural rhythm of the season. January begins with a thoughtfully designed mix of homegrown and carefully sourced stems, followed by our own winter tulips. As the equinox nears, the first garden blooms appear under cover — ranunculus and anemones — before joyous spring bulbs burst into life. The season unfolds with roses, peonies, and foxgloves, and settles into autumn with Japanese anemones and dahlias paired with grasses, toad lilies, and chrysanthemums.
Grown in small quantities and gathered close to home, each subscription is offered in limited numbers for local pickup only.

 What we do

We grow flowers that we love and love the flowers we grow. Our small-scale farm, on the banks of the Saint Lawrence River, allows us to nurture uncommon varieties of cutting flowers in our cottage style garden beds. From agapanthus to old-fashioned garden roses to specialty zinnias, our blooms are close to our hearts. The lilacs and some of the tulips and peonies were planted by Stephen’s grandmother. Our seasonal bouquets and subscriptions are full of flowers we’ve fallen in love on our travels, from hellebores that remind us of England, where we lived in while Stephen was in grad school, hydrangeas and irises from Japan, where we lived in rural Nagano Prefecture for eight years, to foliage from my native Australia. We strive to grow as organically and regeneratively as possible, actively promoting biodiversity by including native plants in all our gardens and nurturing keystone species across our property.
Bouquets and subscriptions will be available for pick up from 11538 Lakeshore Drive, Iroquois, Ontario.

Local delivery is available for floral bouquets and custom arrangements. Get in touch to find out about our delivery rates.
