How much are your stems?

U-pick stems: 10 or more stems $2 each; less than 10 stems $3 each. We pick for you, $3 stem.

What kind of a peony farm are you, like how does this work?

We are a u-pick farm, $2 stem. We provide buckets and clippers, and you just put a little water in your bucket and walk the field picking your own. Pick the stems the length that you would like for your vase. If you want them as buds, pick when they feel like hard marshmallows. Expect them to open in a day or two depending on how hard you picked them. If you pick them a little open you can expect them to open fairly soon and last about a week. If you pick totally open expect them to last only a day or two. When you are done you just return your clippers and we will wrap your bouquet in a plastic bag with a wet towel around the stems. If you prefer to bring your own vase/container to put them in so they are in water, feel free to do that.

What are your available payment methods?

We accept cash, Venmo, Visa, MasterCard, Discover, Zelle, Apple Pay and American Express.

How should I prepare for my visit?

On sunny days, bring a hat, water, and sunscreen! Tennis shoes are recommended. On rainy days, a raincoat and boots- with kids, another outfit! 🙂 Join us under the lean to if it’s pouring!

Also ‘bee’ aware there are plenty of busy bees at work!

Do you sell peony plants or roots?

We have select varieties of plants for sale in the spring. Watch instagram in April for early bird plant sale. Available on the farm once season starts. Limited number, so best selection is early. We are no longer selling roots in the fall.

Can I bring my dog or pet to the farm?

Unfortunately, due to health safety and the delicate nature of the peonies, we do not allow pets. This rule is strictly enforced with exception of ADA service animals.

Do you sell in bulk?

Yes, with a minimum 300 stems, a 10% discount is given. We will not put on our calendar to pick until 1/2 deposit or full payment is made. Non-refundable once the stems are cut for you.

What about florists discounts?

Definitely. Call to discuss florist discounts. We will need to confirm you are a florist.

I am a photographer. Can I do a photoshoot at the farm?

Yes! Our fees are $40 for a 8-10 a.m. session before opening of the day, $30 an hour during business hours. No after hour photo shoots. Call to book your time, 971-235-3469.

The color/variety I need is done blooming by the time I want it. What are my options?

You can pick as buds and store in a refrigerator, reclip bottom of stems and put in water 2-3 days before your event. If not opening fast enough, warm your water, put in sunny window. Opening too fast, set in cooler spot, put back in refrigerator but with the vase of water. The speed of opening depends on how long they have been in refrigeration, and the variety. The longer they have been in storage, the less time it takes to open. This is not an exact science, all depends on variety, how tight they were picked, how long in storage. Rule of thumb, don’t store longer than 2 weeks overall. Some do better than others.

Why aren’t my peonies blooming?

Are they planted too deep? (top of root should only be 2″ deep) They also need full (or almost) sun and space around them. Also don’t plant them in a spot in the yard that sits in water over the winter. Fertilize spring and fall, but don’t overdo it. (See plant care)

Do you sell anything but peonies?

We have an artist friend that designs greeting cards. Check out her artwork cards on the farm or on Facebook: Living Paper Designs or email her at Teresabradybral@gmail.com. 503-351-5098.
