Pick-Your-Own Flowers
While the Victory Garden is currently closed, you can still come to the farm to pick-your-own flowers from our production fields and tunnels! Follow us on Facebook or Instagram for updates about when the Victory Garden will open!*
How it Works:
- The $40 fee includes a cup and entrance into all production fields and tunnels where you can fill up your cup. No additional picking is allowed.
- You can return your cup or purchase a reusable flower sleeve at the Farm Shop if you prefer, however admission will not be discounted.
- You must pay to pick your own flowers anywhere on the farm.
- When you get your cup, you'll also be given some loaner snips to use while you're picking. Snips are returned to the Farm Shop when you're done.
- Flower picking is only permitted in designated areas. To pick flowers throughout the farm, sign up for a Harvest Tour!
- Daily picking has limited availability and is on a first come, first serve basis.
The Victory Garden
The Victory Garden was our first pick-your-own flower patch at Harmony Harvest Farm. The Victory Garden is inspired by the Women's Land Army of America and its Farmerettes who fulfilled the US's food supply during both World Wars. With many of the nation's farmers off to war, President Woodrow Wilson called on Americans to plant gardens to ward off the threat of a food shortage during WWI. Word of this initiative spread through women's groups and garden clubs and by 1917, 3 million new garden plots were planted, growing to over 5.2 million in 1918.
Reemerging during WWII, Victory Gardens made up 40% of the nation's fresh produce - Eleanor Roosevelt even planted a Victory Garden on the lawn of the White House!
As a women-owned and operated farm, we love embracing the path blazed by these amazing female farmers.

Includes a small cup for Victory Garden only (not the full farm).
