Read the 3 sections below to learn a little bit about The Farmhouse, Our Offerings, and The Farmhouse Flowers
The Farmhouse is 5 acres of land in Brooklyn, WI that we have sectioned off for different operations: Vegetable Gardens, Berry Patches, Fruit Trees, Cut Flowers, Bee Hives, Pastures with Livestock, and then of course a play area for the kids! We still have about 2.5 acres untapped, which is crazy to think about with everything we have going on. While each of our operations get a good chunk of time, energy, and space, our primary focus is on cut flowers that support the flower shop small business that Erin owns and operates in Madison, WI, daffodil*parker.

What we offer from the farm are presented a few different ways.
CSA options: We offer a workshare CSA directly on the farm. Our CSA Shares page details out everything it entails. We also provide all of the flowers for the daffodil*parker floral CSA that runs through the flower shop.
Podcasts: Every 6-8 weeks we try to visit a farm in south central WI to learn about their journey and hear about their farm. Our Podcasts page provides you with more information about the podcast as well as links to listen to released episodes.
Workshops: On farm workshops and events have been offered in the past and will continue to be options, but with some new exciting features. We have a new outbuilding that is close to being completed that we are looking forward to hosting new events in. As we start to offer more workshops and events, it's best you get on our mailing list to hear about them!
Wholesale Flowers: We exclusively distribute our wholesale cut flowers to the downtown Madison, WI flower shop daffodil*parker. If you are interested in getting local grown, organic flowers for your wedding or event sourced directly from The Farmhouse, visit the daffodil*parker website to submit an inquiry.
The Farmhouse Flowers operation gets the most attention, as it supports the flower shop daffodil*parker. Every season we grow a few new varieties and try out different growing methods, which typically means expanding our cut flower growing space each year. In 2024 we will have completed construction of our pack shed, which has a walk-in cooler and flower processing area, both of which will help support the cut flower growing operation. To get some of our blooms into your hands, join The Farmhouse CSA or visit the daffodil*parker website!
