🌸✨ Catbird Flower Farm: A Year of Growth and Transformation ✨🌸
What a year it's been for Catbird Flower Farm! In 2024, we took a bold step and relocated from Keene, NH, to a beautiful 3-acre property in Waldoboro, Maine. This move marked the beginning of an exciting new chapter in our journey of cultivating beauty and joy through flowers.
🌱 Building a Strong Foundation
We began by preparing the land with care and intention. In late summer and fall of 2024, we first planted a buckwheat cover crop to get a solid foundation for our garden beds. Later in the year, we planted over 2,000 perennial flower plants, focusing primarily on peonies. These timeless blooms have such a nostalgic charm and beauty, and we're thrilled to see them take root in their new home. Along with our peonies, we are also growing many other perennials including delphinium, rudbeckia, yarrow, echinops, veronica, geum, solidago, hydrangea, viburnum---plus a lot more!
🌿 Embracing Sustainable Practices
This year, we're committed to nurturing our soil and plants using no-till, organic gardening methods. We're creating living pathways between our flower rows, fostering a healthy ecosystem that supports pollinators and promotes biodiversity.
🌼 Looking Ahead
While our perennials are slowly growing and thriving, we know that they take three years to fully mature. We're excited to watch them bloom in the seasons to come, and we can't wait to share their beauty with you. In the meantime, we hope to have flowers on the stand daily but feel free to check in with us to make sure we have blooms that day.
Thank you for supporting us on this journey. Stay tuned for more updates as we continue to cultivate a farm that's as vibrant and beautiful as the flowers we grow.
