Start the year off with a smile and a bouquet for your child’s teacher! Even better than store bought since they can pick the flowers themselves! ☺️
We are opening up a Wednesday you-pick specifically for our back to school crew! As a former teacher, I know how much those little gestures from my students and their families meant to me. Teachers have already been back to work for (usually) several weeks preparing lessons and resetting their classroom. What a way to say thank you for their hard work! While you’re at it, grab yourself one too because you survived the summer! 😅
Of course, this is open to all folks, not just those returning to school! 😉
*I couldn’t find any of my fall classroom pics with flowers. We will not have tulips, but plenty of other gorgeous blooms!
Details Below:
$20 to fill your jar!
15176 Lageman Rd Godfrey is the address. Facebook sometimes likes to change the address to a central rd. You can also look up Riverbend Flower Farm on Google Maps or Waze. Right off 255-large red barn and white silo. No sign (yet) but you’ll see the chalkboard with directions up by the garage and greenhouse.
Upon arrival, please follow the sign to the corn crib (between the barn and greenhouse), where you will find prefilled jars and snips. We ask for everyone to sign a waiver prior to their first cut of the season (QR code will be available as well as paper copies). There will be a locked cash box for cash payment, but we also accept Venmo or payment through our website www.riverbendflowerfarm.com by card.
A couple of things to note:
🚽 The only public restroom we have is an outhouse behind the house.
💧Please bring water to stay hydrated
👟 Tennis shoes or boots are recommended-please be mindful of uneven ground on the farm.
🐶 We love our furry friends, but please leave them behind - no pets allowed (unless certified service animals)
Please don’t hesitate to call or message with any questions! Happy flowering, my friends!
