Spring Sips & Dahlia Tips

Kick off your spring in style with a fun, hands-on Dahlia Workshop and Cider Tasting at Bird Dog Farm & Cider!

Get ready to dig in, sip up, and blossom this spring—because there’s nothing like a little dirt and delicious cider to spark your next great adventure! Join Shannon, the owner of Fox Cottage Farm, for a lively, informative session on all things dahlias—from choosing the perfect tubers to planting methods, soil prep, and expert tips for growing vibrant blooms all summer long. We’ll start with a quick workshop, then head out to the field to plant your own dahlia bulbs, putting your new skills to the test!

Once your dahlias are nestled in the ground, reward yourself with a well-deserved tasting at Bird Dog Farm & Cider, famous for their orchard-to-glass approach and dedication to fresh, local ingredients. Bird-Dog is a certified organic farm as well as a family run cidery in Greenland. Their renovated 1950s dairy barn has been turned into a beautiful tasting room where we will enjoy our tasting. 

Expect to walk away with practical planting know-how, a springtime glow, and some brand-new gardening friends!

What to Wear
This is a hands-on workshop, so be sure to wear comfy clothes you don’t mind getting dirty—think sturdy boots or shoes that can handle a little mud, plus gardening gloves and any other gear you’d usually grab for a day in the garden. Get ready to dig in, learn, and have a blast!
