We’ve retreated from our daily routine these past few weeks to spend some cherished time with our family and friends…we hope you have, too! It dawned on us that 2022 marks our farms’ second decade in existence and we wanted to take a moment to reminisce and share some of our journey with you, our friends and supporters both new and old! Please enjoy this photo retrospective of our farms first ten years in existence!

Here’s to a happy and healthy new year and many more decades of growth and prosperity!

And now…we’re stepping into a new year and a new decade and have so much to look forward to!

Big plans for the 2022 growing season!

We’ve already started our first seeds for the year and are working on a plan to triple our production quantities, to try to better meet demand in 2022. Even though we don’t exactly know what this year’s growing season has in store for us, we do know that we’ll have copious amounts of flowers to share with you! With a fantastic team assembled, we’re planning for a great season! Look out for upcoming newsletters where we’ll speak with more detail on some of our newest projects including the new “Bulbodome” which houses our tulip forcing experiments, the four production greenhouses we’ll be planting out in a few weeks, and the gazillion seeds we’ll be starting in the near future!

We’ll also be making announcements in the next few weeks about our flower CSA program, our class schedule and other fun happening and events at the farm so please look out for those as well!

Thank you for spending a little time reminiscing with us and for all of your support over the past ten years!! Here’s to many more years and to many, many, more flowers!

Happy Thanksgiving from Tiny Hearts Farm! We have plenty to give thanks for and are particularly grateful for the love and support of our family, friends, and wonderful flower-loving community.  This season marks our farm’s tenth year (!) and we’ve grown up from a tiny fledgling start-up to a flourishing farm and flower shop.  We appreciate the wonder of it all and truly realize that without YOU none of it would have been possible.  So, we’d like to offer our most sincere THANK YOU for your support and we hope that you enjoy a wonderful Thanksgiving with your most cherished loved ones!

We have fresh or dried flower arrangements available for pre-order, in perfect sizes for your Thanksgiving table! Pre-order your flowers to be picked up at our Hillsdale flower shop on Wednesday, November 24, from 10 – 4:30, or schedule a home delivery, all online on our website!

For our fresh arrangements, we’re picking gorgeous heirloom chrysanthemums from our greenhouse, as well as flowering kale and seasonal foliage from the fields. Dried flowers have been picked and dried all season long in preparation for this, and include sparkling strawflower, dried marigolds, dahlias, and so much more.

Pre-ordering an arrangement is the only way to guarantee you’ll have local flowers for Thanksgiving – we can’t guarantee that we’ll have any other flowers or bunches available that week. Once the greenhouse is picked through, that is the end of our fresh flower year! 

We’re on Day 4 of the Great Dahlia Dig and will hopefully finish this afternoon or tomorrow morning! Our process begins with mowing the dahlias down, then running our tractor-mounted undercutter to lift them out of the ground. We then follow behind, pulling all that heavy soil off the tuber clumps by hand and cutting off any excess stem, then loading them into crates on the tractor forks.  

Our Thanksgiving decor offerings will be announced this Friday! 

With 2 weeks to go, we’re feeling confident that our beautiful, greenhouse-grown heirloom chrysanthemums will be a dazzling addition to Hudson Valley Thanksgiving tables this year! We’ll be announcing our floral options, both fresh and dried, this Friday (and a couple of workshop announcements, too!)
