Bucks County Parent Community Calendar
Hortulus Farm, the picturesque Destination Farm, Garden, and Nursery in Newtown, Bucks County, has announced a series of captivating Wildflower Weekends to savor the lingering beauty of extended summer. Every Saturday and Sunday, from September 9th to September 24rd, Hortulus Farm invites the community to embrace the enchanting wildflowers, artisanal
shopping, and family-friendly fun, as the season’s bloom continues to grace the grounds with vibrant colors.
As the end of summer draws near, Hortulus Farm’s blooming wildflower field transforms into a floral
wonderland, featuring an enchanting array of zinnias, calendulas, amaranths, dahlias, and fragrant fillers like
basil. Visitors will have the chance to immerse themselves in the lingering charm of summer and create memories
amidst nature’s vibrant palette. Guests are welcome to stroll through the field and cut their very own bouquets,
skillfully hand-tied by the horticulturists at Hortulus. The farm offers an opportunity to capture stunning
photos amidst the blooming wildflowers or indulge in whimsical touches with freshly made flower crowns and
bouquets available for purchase.
“Our Wildflower Weekends are a celebration of the extended summer, where nature’s beauty continues to grace
our farm with a kaleidoscope of colors,” says Jon Kontz, Executive Director of Hortulus. “Seeing the grounds
brimming with families connecting amidst nature is truly our greatest joy. We are delighted to continue
nurturing this sense of togetherness and wonder through our Wildflower Weekends, offering elegant and
thoughtful nature-based programming that brings the community closer to the artistic brilliance of our natural
surroundings. We extend a heartfelt invitation to everyone, young and old, to join us in savoring these magical
moments when families unite around activities in nature.”
In addition to the captivating wildflowers, visitors can enjoy live music from local musicians, floral-themed
cocktails from Soundless Spirits Distillery and Vault Brewing in our Cocktail Garden, and tantalizing treats
from food trucks, making it a perfect outing for the whole family.
