about The farm & Stand
nestled behind the stand
Established in 2021, the micro farm at catbird corner grows a wide variety of seasonal cut flowers. each year, new trials are completed to see which plants produce the highest quality and longest lasting blooms for your selected bouquets. the ultimate goal of this farm is to share the beauty and nostalgia of flowers with the surrounding community in the most natural way possible. an added bonus: supporting the pollinators who work so hard to help our planet thrive!
Covering only 2000 square feet, the flower field is considered a “micro” flower farm. Small- scale agriculture operations under five acres are placed within this classification. Don’t let the size fool you - weather permitting, this little farm blooms it’s heart out from April to the first frost in October. Every year the garden expands to offer even more variety - with two new raised beds added at the end of ‘21 and again in ‘22. (I cant help myself)
Every plant is lovingly grown from seed and cared for using only organically sourced materials and treatments.
EACH year you can expect to see varieties of local favorites like: zinnia, sunflowers, celosia, snapdragons, Dahlias, Lisianthus and more!
