On Tuesday, July 11th, we will visit the unique Tapalou Guilds Flower Farm in Guilford. Hanna Jenkins and Andy Loughney started this family owned and operated farm in 2015. They will share with us their mission to connect, heal and celebrate through flowers. They grow flowers using ecologically sound practices with the intention of honoring the land that they steward.
Though this is basically an easy stroll down mowed paths, bear in mind that you will encounter some uneven terrain as we walk through an acre filled with gorgeous flowers. With Hanna's help, we will have a ball identifying the flowers and viewing the creative structures that Andy has erected on the farm. Hanna and Andy are most generous to host our private walk during their busy growing season.
