Did you know the positive and therapeutic benefits of a bouquet of flowers in your home have been proven? A new Harvard Medical School study shows that living with flowers strengthens feelings of compassion and decreases anxiety. Read the article here! So, a bouquet a day may literally keep the doctor away! Why don't you find out for yourself by creating a bouquet for yourself, your home or someone you love? 

 

The Dudley Farm is partnering with Dr. Philomena Asante (Mena), a pediatrician and the owner of Mena's Garden LLC in North Guilford to have the first-ever 'Flower Bouquet Making Station' on Saturday August 24 at 10am.  After a 15-minute demonstration on how to make and take care of the perfect flower bouquet, you can select from buckets of fresh, field-grown, in-season perennial and annual flowers (like dahlias, zinnias, cosmos, yarrow, phlox, hydrangeas, roses, spirea) to make your own flower bouquet.

(The cost per 10-stem bouquet is $15, while supplies last!)
