If you’re looking for a unique date night - a quiet escape where you can connect with your loved one - then keep reading.
Imagine arriving at the farm, stepping into the fields, and being greeted with a cold drink and a picnic basket filled with delicious treats. You take in the beauty around as you choose your own table amongst the rows of flowers. At your table is a pre-picked bucket of flowers, 2 vases, and simple directions on how to make your own arrangement. Together you work on creating your floral designs as you sip your libation, snack on light refreshments and enjoy the serenity of the farm in the glow of a summer evening.
Your Date Night includes:

• 1 welcome drink per person (21+)
• Infused-water station & seltzers for nonalcoholic options
• 2 Vases + Flowers for you to design with and take home. If you are a couple and/or family, perhaps you keep one arrangements at home and give the other away. If you are friends joining us, then you each get your own!
