Yay, you’re part of our Flower Bouquet Share! Our bouquet share is unique in that we follow the “CSA”, (Community Supported Agriculture) farming model in which you “the community” help support our farm before the season starts and then enjoy the benefits with weekly flower bouquets. All of the flowers in our bouquets are grown locally on our farm nestled between Elko-New Market and Lakeville. We start a majority of our flowers from seed (or bulb) and all flowers are hand harvested with care. We use sustainable growing practices so feel free to stick your nose in those blooms and soak it all in.

What to Expect at Pick Up: 

Blue Sky Flower Farm (Thursday 3-7 PM): 

• The Bouquet Share pick up spot will be in our Farmstand. Feel free to pull over on the gravel road or park in the driveway and walk on up! Bouquets will be in black flower buckets. Please feel free to carefully pick one out.  We will have a clipboard on the table, please check off your name when you’ve picked up your flowers. Since the bouquets are a perishable item, we are not able to hold them after pick up hours. Flower bouquets not picked by the end of the pick up time allotted will be donated. Thank you for your understanding.

All bouquets are wrapped in a kraft paper sleeve and vase ready. Some members have found it helpful to keep a mason jar or small bucket of water in their car for transporting their flowers. Flowers should not be kept in a warm car for periods of time.

As stated above, any bouquets not picked up by 7:00 pm on Thursday will be donated. If you are unable to pick up your bouquet for some reason, please feel free to have a neighbor or friend grab yours that week.

Also, while we grow safely and sustainably, the flowers we use in the bouquets are not for animal or human consumption.
