Visiting my Wildflower Farm
This farm is a small ‘scratch-made’ farm & nursery.
When you visit, you’ll find me gardening, gazing at insects, & stopping to listen to birds. Chances are pretty good you’ll also find me covered in soil, sweat & a grin as big as my sunhat!
And if you don’t find me…
RING THE BELL LOUD!
Native Plant Nursery

Special Holiday hours November 20th ~ Dec. 20th
We are a NYS licensed nursery (#646726).
Our nursery area is under Wild Cherry, Maple, & Crabapple trees in our front yard.
Here you’ll find native plants, herbs, plus a few rebels like bearded iris looking for gardens to call home.
All our plants are field-grown organically without plastics or peat.
Plant availability changes weekly.

Our farm is bursting with wildlife from the soil to the sky!
This includes bugs you might not like and bugs who don’t like you. Some bugs may really like you — (Miss Mosquito I’m looking at you girl!)
Others like Monarch caterpillars or Lightening Bugs you might LOVE too much…
For a nice visit with our wildlife friends we ask that you:
BE PREPARED! Bring your favorite bug repellant and wear long pants or sleeved shirts for walks. A jacket is always a good idea!
NEVER REMOVE ANY WILDLIFE FROM OUR FARM. This includes eggs and insect larvae like caterpillars. REMOVAL OR HARM TO WILDLIFE IS THE FASTEST WAY TO GET BARRED FROM OUR FARM!

Farm Rules to know…
Our farm is a WORKING flower farm with lots of “projects in process”.
This is also our home~ a 200 year old farmhouse & barn with lots of ‘quirks’
Over the years we’ve created simple ‘FARM RULES’
~ many sad to say based on experience.
For a great visit please
STAY IN GUEST AREAS You are welcome to stroll our gardens but not private areas or work areas this includes the old barn!
PHOTOGRAPHY You are welcome to take photos/videos during your visit. Please ask permission of other guests before photographing/video. Posting on Google reviews or social media? Tag us at @lazydirtwildflowerfarm
