Flower farms offers you-pick experience

CAN (SK): “The flowers take a long time to start growing but it is worth it because they are so beautiful”

Fabled Acres Flower Farm is a new concept to the Prairies, albeit a simple one: go to the farm to cut your own long-stem, florist-quality flowers.

Alesha Boettcher, the owner and operator, will teach customers how to cut and process fauna and when you have got enough, you can sit at the table and make yourself a stunning arrangement.

“It’s really the experience you are coming out for,” said Boettcher. “I call it my secret garden. People come to ground themselves in nature.”

Though she does sell to some flower shops, these flowers will be fresher and longer lasting than anything at a florist because customers cut them. At the end you may have just got all your flowers for the wedding or made a beautiful bouquet for yourself or someone you love. The farm is expected to be open in early July and run until the first frost.
