Nothing quite compares to gathering at the farm to share the art of flower farming and design. Our workshop – "A Table In Bloom -The art of creating a Dahlia filled centerpiece" was an unforgettable masterclass in growing, harvesting, and arranging these incredible late-season blooms.

From selecting the beautiful blooms to learning proper hydration and arrangement structure, every moment was dedicated to the art of working with seasonal flowers. We loved opening up the farm for an intimate, hands-on learning experience with fellow flower enthusiasts.

Thank you to everyone who spent the day with us!

Join us for our next seasonal workshops on Saturday, December 5th https://www.turbowfarms.com/workshops

Calling garden lovers in Zones 8-10. If you are planning your spring cut flower garden, two heavyweights deserve a spot in your beds: Ranunculus and Anemones. While both are planted in autumn and bloom in early spring, they bring totally distinct vibes to your floral arrangements!

Here is how to decide:
• Ranunculus: Choose these if you love dense, rose-like blooms with hundreds of paper-thin layers and high stem yields.
• Anemones: Choose these if you want bold contrast, delicate poppy-style petals, and striking dark centers that pop in vases.

The best part? You don't actually have to choose. Both share identical Zone 9 planting timelines, soil temperature requirements, and care steps.
