Loose Flowers to DIY Buckets from our Farm

While the styles ebb and flow, being flower farmers means we still love color. No matter which year it is. I find the bodacious bright zinnia enchanting and soft full dahlias luscious. 

Anyway, flowers were meant to represent fertility and the richness of life. A wedding should be a celebration; neither a show of bling or a blanket of green expresses this truth. 

So while white and green flood the media pages, we will grow them.  But always, we will have the bold, the bright and the cheerful, available for our 'sunny side up' brides.

Now Flower Shares from Shady Grove Gardens


Flower Shares - Our Subscription of Flower Bouquets- just for you

Once a long long time ago we had a CSA flower subscription. Now we have some new ideas on how to make it happen for everyone. So here we go. It's like a vegetable CSA or community supported agriculture. What that means for you, is you pay ahead.  But unlike a gym membership, you're going to love seeing us every week. 

For either Tuesday 4-7pm pickup in Boone, NC or Thursday pickup here at the Zionville nursery we have several choices of bouquets and buckets of flowers to choose from. 

(Those of you willing to come to us on Thursday 4-7pm, for your weekly flowers, you get a discount)

When you sign up, you choose  the number of months you'd like.
For each type of Flower Share we have a set number of subscriptions available. Sign up early. The deadline for 'The Spring Share' is mid-April.  You will receive and introduction with a few more details as well as a reminder email each week, before pickup.

The friends and family put together these great mason jars, from our DIY mixed buckets.
