Harvest & Design- Dahlias: On Farm Workshop & Experience
Our thousand plus dahlia plants are in peak season in mid September through early October, when the blooms are pumping out, as if the plants know that there are a mere few weeks until a killing frost puts them back to sleep for another 8 months. Step into the vibrant, late-summer magic of our flower fields for a special two-hour workshop dedicated to the queen of the season - dahlias.
