Flower Farms in the Hudson Valley You Need to Know About!

No matter the time of year, there is nothing better to lift your spirits, make for a festive moment, or enhance a romantic soiree or wedding, than fresh-cut flowers. Dotted throughout the Hudson Valley, small-scale flower farms provide fresh-cut floral bouquets at local markets, flower shops, farm stands, and gift shops. These Upstate NY farms offer CSA’s, they encourage visits to “pick-your-own,” attend workshops and provide tips for flower care. Some also cultivate botanicals for use in all-natural skin and body care products.
