Day Trip- Dahlia Farm
with Darlene Montgomery
Dahlia Farm
The Pastures of Grace Dahlia Farm in Siskiyou County is a true gem. Join us for a private tour of the farm, a "you-pick" experience with over $100 in flowers, and a lunch stop in Mount Shasta! Buckets are provided, but you are encouraged to bring your own flower cutters!
Visiting Pastures of Grace Dahlias is a delightful experience. You'll find rows of beautiful dahlias in various colors, each one showcasing the care and dedication put into growing them. It's a peaceful spot to enjoy nature and maybe snap a few photos of Mt Shasta. The atmosphere is relaxed and welcoming, making it a great place to unwind and appreciate the simple beauty of flowers. There is also a farm store where participants can shop locally made products. This location is also a wedding venue and we are happy to give a tour to anyone interested in the event barn space.
