TENDER TULIPS

Friends like so many I’m madly craving spring time - the weather here in New Jersey has just started to get a bit warmer and it has me dreaming of beautiful flowers. And nothing says spring more than Tulips. Enjoy!

Long Valley Peonies (2023)

Friends I had the most incredible experience yesterday.

I visited Long Valley Peonies with my sister. We walked around admiring the amazing blooms. I truly felt like I’d gone to Heaven.

The Beauty! The Scent!

If you live within a few hours drive of Long Valley, NJ you need to go. The hot weather that’s forecast for later this week will shorten the life of the blooms - and the farm thinks by the end of this weekend 6/3 & 6/4 they might be done. They are located at 227 West Mill Road, Long Valley, NJ, 07853 Hours: 9am-6pm daily, rain or shine. It costs $10.00 CASH to visit. The bouquets are $35.00 for 10 blooms CASH. If you want a place to dine in the area try the Long Valley Pub and Brewery, Chesapeake Tavern - both down the road from the Farm or where we lunched The Olde Mill Tavern. It beautiful country out that way.

Get there before they are close for the season!

You enter down a long drive.

This cream bloom with the yellow and pink was spectacular!

I can’t explain how glorious it was. We were so fortunate to walk around in the quiet - just taking in these gorgeous blooms and enjoying the scent. Magical!
