    Our peak bloom time here in Ferndale, WA is the month of July. Our early varieties start blooming around the third week of June. The late bloom lasts into the first week of August. If you want to visit the farm, July is your best bet.

  • Are dogs allowed ?

    At this time we do allow dogs. However , they must be on a leash at all times. We have chickens and ducks running loose, and don’t know how other dogs act around them. Our own dog is here un-leashed, so if your dog doesn’t get along with other dogs, please leave them in the car. (windows down to allow enough ventilation of course) And of course, please clean up after your pet.
