Dahlia U-Pick Continues!

As predicted, there was a bit of frost on the dahlias this morning. But it was very spotty, and by the afternoon it was clear that although the damage was more than zero, it was quite minimal (see slide 5 for an example, and slide 6 for the cheery, breezy survival vibes). Phew!

We're so grateful to have another week or more of picking—no frost in the 10-day forecast at the moment. Stop by and get a dose of floral therapy, explore our "living catalog" of dahlia varieties, and take home a bouquet or a full bucket. Open daily 10am-4:30pm; closed Tu/We. U-pick will continue until hard frost or October 19th, whichever comes first.

*Potential Frost Alert* Though it's too early to say for sure, the possibility of our first frost is on the horizon early next week. If you've been thinking of experiencing our two acres of certified organic dahlia blooms, don't hesitate! Weather looks pretty good the next few days, and the field is full of blooms.

Que Será (the name of this beautiful anemone dahlia) is also the attitude we must adopt this time of year as we prepare to welcome the cold and say "see you next year" to these amazing floral beings. Never easy, but... whatever will be, will be. 🪷😌

New merch alert! We've updated our tees and added trucker caps to the catalog—both are classic garments, simply adorned.

T-shirts are made of garment-dyed 100% cotton fabric with a soft, lived-in feel. They have a custom screen-printed Hudson Valley Seed Co logo at the left chest, with a logo detail at the back neck. Available in three colors (see last slide).

Caps are a classic 5-panel trucker hat with a structured cotton-blend front, breathable mesh back, and adjustable snap closure. Finished with a custom embroidered Hudson Valley Seed Co logo at the front and embroidered arc detail at the back.

We've still got our older style green tees available, too, though stock is limited.

Thanks to Greenhouse Manager Bill for modeling the new garments!

Gardening requires imagining what's ahead—and now's the time to envision December salad bowls full of sweet, tender cold-hardy greens harvested from your own garden. One easy way to achieve this is with our Winter Greens Mix, a blend of exceptionally cold-hardy leafy greens. Protected by some well-anchored row cover, or even without, many of these greens will give modest but meaningful harvests all winter—apart from the very coldest days of January, when the plants, like us, tend to snooze for a bit.

Mix includes Claytonia, Minutina, Mache, Wild Arugula, and Spinach. Sow now for winter harvest and in late September or early October for harvests from February through April.

Illustrator Alex Aldrich Barrett beautifully captures the winter garden vibes for our Winter Greens Mix Art Pack. Her depiction of a greens-adorned quilt summons up the coziness and dormancy—and protective fabrics!—that are part of the winter experience for plants and gardeners alike.

(Psst, these seeds are part of our extensive Labor Day sale, which ends tonight, Monday, September 7th, at 11:59pm EST.)

There's still time to plant a variety of fast-growing, cold-hardy leafy green vegetables for harvest in November and December (pro tip: some hoops and row cover keep quality up even as winter sets in).

Arugula, mizuna, dill, cilantro, lettuce, and mustard greens all yield sweet, tender leaves despite the onset of the colder weather that is ahead of us. And the final sowings must be made in the coming 1-2 weeks. After that the cooler temps and shorter days limit plant growth too much to get the crops to harvest stage reliably.

To make it that much easier to get your late fall greens fix, we've included these seeds as part of our Labor Day Sale running now through Monday. Enjoy up to 40% off across our catalog! No code required.

We are super excited to collaborate this Saturday with .market, , and for Makestream Day—a makers market happening at our farm, highlighting creative reuse and nature-based art from artists of the global majority.
market has taught indigo dye workshops here at the seed co and we are so thrilled to have her return with this fabulous event.

Shop artworks, artisanal foods, and enjoy creative demos and art installations, all set among our peak-of-season gardens (see second slide for the setting!). Greenhouses, retail shop, and U-pick dahlia and annual flower activities are all open as usual.

Looks like it will be a beautiful day, and we hope to see you here! 11 Airport Road, Accord, NY.
