About
We grow a large collection of peonies, seasonal flowers and ornamental greens, covering about three acres in Killingworth, CT. . We have 30 varieties peonies growing on our farm.
We are passionate about peonies!.
Our farm prioritize quality by allowing our peony plants to mature to an average of 3-5 years before the first commercial stem is ever harvested. Ordering directly from our farm or The Connecticut Flower Collective assures your flowers go through fewer hands and arrive in peak condition, shortly after being cut from our fields.
We believe in taking care of the land and our environment; sustainability is a priority. Peony farming is hard work with a satisfying result. We take pride in delivering CT peonies, hand-selected from our farm to your door.

Mushroom Cultivation
Cultivation
Mushrooms are grown on inoculated logs out doors and in a controlled environment, typically in a dark and humid space. The growing medium for mushrooms can vary, but common options include sawdust, straw or soil compost. The process of growing mushrooms involves inoculating the growing medium with mushroom spores, which will eventually develop into fruiting bodies or mushrooms
