Saturday October 26
Hi PEI! This may be your last chance to get a fresh bouquet from the field today!
The is open!! 💐💙💐
We are harvesting the last dahlias, Snaps, Suns and others. The -C temps in the forecast will put an end to the field flowers for the 2024 season.
We will however still have some beautiful long lasting cut flower mums that we have been growing in the greenhouse since June. If you think all mums are equal … they are definitely not! We have 8 varieties some that are still in bud! Stay tuned for availability!!
We have a busy day today prepping a pumpkin centrepiece order for a corporate event. Thanks to Michelle, Mary Ella, and Lind (for cleaning and harvesting the pumpkins) We will be working in the barn today so be sure to stop in for a fresh field bouquet !
***Please note the farm yard is very busy with potato trucks, vehicles, and workers unloading potatoes in the warehouse next to my flower barn. Please drive carefully!⚠️

Hi PEI! Well we passed another weekend of no frost damage Yay!Thanks to everyone who stopped by on Saturday🥰 We still have lots of bright bouquets💐 available this week at our self serve 💙 It’s a bit noisy in the farm yard with grain driers going full tilt taking advantage of the warm sunny days to reduce moisture in the recently harvested soybean crop. The greenhouse is busting with cut flower mums that we are adding into our mixed bouquets. Hope you are all able to get outside and enjoy this beautiful sunshine!

Hi everyone I wanted to send out an update. Firstly thank you so much for all your orders! 🙏Today is our first pick up for the pre order pumpkin table centres If you ordered for today they will be ready for you. A reminder to bring something to place them in so they aren’t rolling around on your way home! Blue wagon update
We will be stocking the 💙 for tomorrow, Friday,October 11 and Saturday October 12, as today we are prepping our pumpkin centres for our pre-orders. I will post here the wagon availability. We may have some additional pumpkin centres available after our orders are filled. Stay tuned! We will not be taking on any more orders until we are caught up!

CARING FOR YOUR CENTREPIECE
Your pumpkin flowers are in a compostable water filled cup, that will require a small addition of water daily to keep those short stems hydrated. Be careful not to overfill! Keeping your pumpkin cool will help its longevity.. remove any spent flowers.
The pumpkin is completely compostable so please dispose in the proper green bin. 💚

Thank you for choosing farm grown PEI flowers for your Thanksgiving celebrations. We are honoured to grow and share our flowers with you!

It’s Pumpkin Centrepiece week!
Thanksgiving October 14/2024
We are offering you the opportunity to pre order a flower filled pumpkin for your Thanksgiving celebration! For yourself or hostess gift!
FQA
What is it?
Our specialty pumpkins are grown here on the farm. We harvest clean out, sanitize and let them dry to ensure they will last for you. We place a water filled paper cup in the pumpkin and prepare an autumnal arrangement with our farm grown flowers and greens. #100%farmgrown #100%compostable.
Why use a paper cup and not floral foam and plastic? Because we choose an environmentally friendly method and avoid adding more unnecessary waste. And…flowers perform best in fresh clean water!
How long will they last?
Pumpkins are a fresh vegetable, and as with all veggies, they will keep for a limited amount of time. Keeping your pumpkin cool and the short stemmed flowers hydrated with adequate fresh water daily will ensure your arrangement will be at its best.
PRE ORDER

08/20/2024

Hi Everyone! Thanks SO much for all your answers to todays question:
How many years has Island Meadow Farm been providing fresh seasonal flower bouquets to in Marshfield PEI ?
The correct answer is 25 years. Since 1999. In 1998 we had a small stand at the end of York road opposite side of today’s market. It was called Jewell’s Roadside Market.
Construction for Jewell’s Country Market began in the fall of 1998 and opened the following year. When I look at the old photos….. luckily for you all, I feel our bouquets have come a long way in 25 years! Thanks to everyone who has purchased our flowers for 25 years!
Our three winners today are:
Arsenault Richard
Acorn
Morrow
Congratulations everyone ! I will message you re-picking up your prize !
Thanks to all for entering !
Watch tomorrow’s post for question #2 and more chances to win! 💐🌻💐

Farm update October 22

Hi PeI ! Our field flower season is coming to a close for 2023 and it’s time to get the fall chores completed before the cold weather arrives. The 💙 💐 will be tucked away until next summer….

Dahlia tuber digging started on Friday and will continue as the weather allows. For those of you not familiar with the process, each of the dahlias were planted and supported with a bamboo stake and tied every few weeks to keep them upright and stems straight. Now the string needs to be removed, the plant cut down with the ID tag attached, then they are lifted carefully and as much soil as possible removed. They are placed in crates and are put in the greenhouse for a few days before dividing, drying again for a day or so, dusted with cinnamon to help prevent mold, and then packed in vermiculite or a soil mix before storing in a controlled environment for the winter.

It’s always hard to cut the dahlias down when they are still blooming happily, but with the frost and cold wet weather looming, it needs to happen. By the sound of the forecast it may be tomorrow night🥶

Meanwhile, in the greenhouse, the heirloom and cut flower mums are finally in bud, the last few crates of lilies, and the eucalyptus, and scented geraniums are all nice and cosy with promise of some colour yet to come! When they start to flower they will only be available through as I will be concentrating on the multitude of fall tasks. Please watch story posts for updates.

I would like to send a huge heartfelt Thank You! to you, our faithful blue wagon friends, 🙏🙏🙏 hoping our seasonal blooms brought you joy !
