Just like a vegetable CSA (Community Supported Agriculture), the Lazy Acres flower bouquet CSA is a subscription that runs throughout the spring and Summer providing you with fresh blooms every week.
By joining the flower bouquet CSA (Community Supported Agriculture) in the winter or spring, you enable the farm to buy seeds, plants and equipment when farm expenses are numerous, and in return you (or a lucky gift recipient...?!) will receive a share of the harvest - in the form of a fresh seasonal bouquet every week during the field season. You’re also becoming a part of the farm family and bearing some of the risks that come with farming such as weather related incidents or crop failures - right alongside us! But the hope is that by planting a diversified mix of specialty flowers, and using sustainable growing methods, we can mitigate those risks and bring you amazing blooms all season long.
CSA Type
There are two separate CSA options; personal or business.
The personal CSA is a curated bouquet of seasonal blooms in a kraft paper wrap.
The business CSA is an arrangement in a vase - perfect for your an office, lobby or reception area. Business shares can also be purchased for personal use - they’re just bigger and a bit fancier than the personal shares!
CSA Seasons
There are two options for the season of the CSA; spring or summer. Both the personal and business CSA are available for each season.
The spring share will run for 4 weeks starting in early to mid-May with spring lovelies such as daffodils, ranunculus and tulips (and many others!). These are the best of the best flowers that we grow lovingly all winter and we are all so excited to get these blooms in your homes in the spring when we’re all just a little desperate for blooms after a long winter!
The summer share will run for 10 weeks once the fields start producing (likely in late June). We start with peonies, lilies and sunflowers and end with zinnias, lisianthus and dahlias (if weather allows!) as well as many others along the way.
Bouquets each week will feature what is fresh and at its peak. We grow over 50 varieties of flowers, thus ensuring lots of expected and unexpected blooms to grace your home!
Delivery**
Delivery is available at a central location in Boothbay (East Boothbay General Store), Alewives Fabrics in Damariscotta Mills, Freckle Salvage Company in Winthrop and Mahala’s Day Spa in Manchester.
** If we do not have enough people sign up at any of the off-site locations for each share, we will work with you to come up with an alternative and/or can refund your order if we end up cancelling the trip to your preferred location.
