Today we started delivering our weekly flower buckets to the Maison Tait House .

Each week, the flowers will change with the season, showcasing what’s looking its best in the field at that moment. Our Grower’s Choice buckets are filled with a seasonal mix of locally grown flowers and foliage, bringing a little bit of the growing season indoors.

As someone born and raised in this region, I’ve always had a soft spot for the Tait House. I’ve celebrated many milestones there over the years with dear friends, and it’s one of those places that feels woven into the fabric of our community. From the beautiful craftsmanship and historic woodwork to the warm hospitality, it’s a place that tells the story of New Brunswick’s past while continuing to bring people together today.

It’s an honour to see our locally grown flowers on display in such a special place. If you find yourself in Shediac this summer, it’s well worth a visit.

Our seasonal flower buckets will soon be available online for businesses, restaurants, event spaces, and anyone looking to enjoy fresh, local flowers throughout the season.

We’re eagerly anticipating our return to the Marché de Dieppe this season. One of the things we loved most about being there last summer was discovering so many talented local businesses (and, of course, all the amazing food!).

This year, I wanted to zhuzh up our booth a little, so we commissioned The Banner Bar to create a custom hand-painted backdrop. To say we’re obsessed would be an understatement. From the lighthouse to the lavender, it perfectly captures our farm’s coastal roots and the spirit of O’Sea Lavender Farm. If you’re looking for custom signage, murals, or hand-painted artwork for your business, be sure to check out her work.

We had hoped to be back at the Dieppe Market with flowers this weekend, but Mother Nature has her own plans. The gardens are full of healthy plants and lush growth, but very little is actually blooming yet. Everything is looking fantastic — it’s just taking its sweet old time.

Our plan is to resume our Friday flower drop-offs at Brix next weekend. If all goes according to plan, we’ll be back at the Dieppe Market the last weekend of June. We can’t wait to get flowers back into your hands and see everyone again soon.

Today’s bridal bouquet marks the start of another wedding season on the farm.

When the bride first reached out this winter, her vision was beautifully simple: locally grown flowers, a palette of white and green, and a trailing element that felt elegant and natural.

The moment I realized the delicate bells of lily of the valley would be in season for her wedding, I knew I wanted to pair them with trailing English ivy. Together with white ranunculus and bleeding heart, they create a bouquet that feels timeless, romantic, and reminiscent of an English cottage garden.

One of the things I love most about seasonal flowers is that the garden helps shape the design. Lily of the valley is only with us for a brief moment each year, and this bouquet is a reflection of that fleeting season. It simply couldn’t have been created at any other time.

A beautiful bouquet for a bride who embraced the idea of letting local flowers lead the way.

We’ll be back at the Dieppe Market next weekend, online bouquet orders will be opening soon, and if you’re looking for flowers for a wedding or special event this summer, we’d love to hear from you.

Farming has a way of keeping you humble.

This afternoon, we lost the plastic on one of our polytunnels. To be fair, the plastic was already pretty mangled. I was hoping to squeeze one more season out of it with a generous amount of duct tape and a few prayers, but today had other plans.

When I was 21, I dropped out of university to sail around the world on a tall ship. Looking back, few experiences prepared me better for farming. At sea, you learn that nature always gets the final vote. You can make your plans, do your maintenance, and convince yourself you’ve got one more season left in something, but eventually reality arrives.

Thankfully, the tunnel had already done its job. It carried thousands of seedlings through the cold spells this spring, gave them the head start they needed, and helped get every last plant into the ground. We had already cleared it out for the plant sale, so the timing could have been much worse.

I was hoping for one more year. The wind disagreed.

We’ll get it fixed when we get it fixed. For now, all the plants are in the ground, the season is underway, and that’s a pretty good place to be.

After a week spent planting as much as we could ahead of the forecast, the rain finally arrived.

It’s been a dry spring, and every flower farmer knows the feeling of watching the weather app, moving irrigation, and hoping the next system doesn’t miss you. This rain is much needed, and thousands of young plants are getting exactly what they need this morning.

Turn the volume up and enjoy the sound of rain falling across the flower field. No music required.

We’re open today from 10–4, rain or shine.

Next weekend we’ll be back at the for the start of the season, and the following weekend our cut flower subscription begins again. Summer on the farm is officially underway.

Woke up this morning to find a group of Canada geese walking straight down one of our newly planted amaranth rows.

It’s also a good reminder of why we plant more than we need. Between weather, wildlife, and the occasional situation you never saw coming, farming rarely goes exactly according to plan. Planting an excess gives us a little insurance when something decides to help itself to the crop.

Today is the second day of our plant sale, and we still have a great selection of amaranths available for anyone looking to grow cut flowers this year. We’ll have upright varieties, trailing varieties, and a few colours to choose from.

We’re open from 10 to 4 today. Come by and see us.

Thank you to everyone who came out to our Fourth Annual Plant Sale today. We were absolutely thrilled with the turnout and, more importantly, it was so nice to spend the day talking flowers, gardening, and catching up with so many familiar faces. Your support of our small farm means more than you know.

If you missed us today, we’ll be back open tomorrow from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m., rain or shine. We’ll have a fresh selection of plants available, along with newly harvested bundles of ranunculus straight from the field.

Come start your week with ranunculus.

Some flowers are beautiful. Lily of the valley is legendary.

For centuries, perfumers have tried to capture its unmistakable fragrance. The challenge? Lily of the valley produces no essential oil, making it one of the most difficult scents in the world to recreate. Nearly every lily of the valley perfume ever made has been built from carefully crafted fragrance compounds designed to imitate the real thing.

It’s also a flower with a long history of royal admirers. From bridal bouquets to palace gardens, lily of the valley has earned a reputation as one of the most coveted flowers of spring. Entire bridal bouquets have been made from lily of the valley alone, requiring hundreds of stems and making them some of the most luxurious wedding bouquets in the world.

Its season on our farm lasts only a matter of days, not weeks. We harvested a small patch this morning, and a few stems are making their way into this week’s mini bouquets at .

Every Friday, we drop off a limited number of farm-grown mini bouquets at Brix. Pick one up with your morning coffee and enjoy one of spring’s most celebrated flowers while it’s here.

We’ll also be reopening online bouquet orders next week as the local flower season begins to gather momentum.

Tiny flowers. Elite status.
