let us live like wildflowers —

wild and beautiful and drenched in sun

HIDDEN IN THYME

Florals & Farm

-Ellen Everett

We are a small-scale flower farm located in Orono, Maine that takes pride in sustainably growing a wide variety of unique blooms that reflect the current season. Tulips and daffodils greet us in the Spring once the snow finally melts, and we finish out the Fall season with our personal favorite - dahlias. It is our mission to improve the land we live on, to give back to nature, and to make the world a better, more beautiful place.

In addition to flower farming, we practice beekeeping (which is one of the many reasons we always, always, ALWAYS use organic practices). We raise chickens for farm fresh eggs and dabble in herbalism using healing herbs that are grown right here on our farm. We are extremely passionate about slow living and soaking up the beauty in every moment. It is a dream come true to be able to share some of the magic we create with all of you.

Hi there -                                           

and welcome to Hidden In Thyme - Florals & Farm

We grow a wide variety of vibrant annuals, lush perennials, and gorgeous flowering shrubs and fruit trees. Dahlias are a HUGE love of ours (an obsession, really), and we are so excited to offer our tubers and cuttings to you in the future.

You can find us throughout the Summer & Fall months at the both the Hampden Farmer’s Market (Friday’s 2pm-5:30pm) and Orono Farmer’s Market (Saturday’s from 8am- 12pm in the steam plant parking lot across from the University of Maine). In addition to selling our blooms at the local farmers market, we also take custom flower orders, sell wholesale to local florists, offer bulk buckets, and would be thrilled to design custom arrangements for your own private event.

Thank you so much for being here.

TULIP TALK || 🌷 When growing tulips for production, they’re planted very closely together (like eggs in an egg carton) and when it comes time to harvest them, the entire bulb gets pulled. This way, they store in the cooler for up to 3-4 week
TULIP TALK || 🌷 When growing tulips for production, they’re planted very closely together (like eggs in an egg carton) and when it comes time to harvest them, the entire bulb gets pulled. This way, they store in the cooler for up to 3-4 weeks! When you’re ready to use them, simply cut the bulb off, rehydrate and you’ll have yourself some beautiful tulips! 💐 We do compost the bulbs after cutting them off the stem…. and it kills Drew…. so the woods behind our backyard is a tulip bulb graveyard, where he has carefully planted a few hundred of the composted bulbs 😂 #cutflowers #cutflowerfarm #cutflowerfarmers #maineflowerfarmers #maineflowerfarm #organicfarming #mainefarmer #zone5gardening #tulip #tulipsharvest #locallygrown

Pulling the last couple varieties from the tulip beds and the colors are DREAMY 😍🌷 Double tulips have multiple layers of petals, look like peonies as they open & have a significantly longer vase life compared to singles. Each day as they age, they’ll look a little different in both shape & color. It’s like they’re putting on a show 🤩 We will have a selection of double tulip bunches available at both the Hampden & Orono Farmers Markets this week, as well as a limited amount of other spring blooms. It is so exciting every time a new flower shows itself in the garden… ✨ Tulips pictured here — Finola (cream) & Pink Star (pink) #cutflowers #cutflowerfarm #tulips #tulipharvest #cutflowerfarmer #inthegarden #mainefarms #maineflowerfarmers #maineflowerfarm #sustainablefarming #organicfarming #zone5growing
