Flowers for Events
Quonquont’s cutting garden, home to more than 250 different flowers,begins to pump out blossoms in mid-June and continues until hard frost in October. Our horticulture manager, Nicole Hayduk is available to create all of the arrangements for your event, share the fun by creating some of the bouquets while you do the rest, or leave it all to you. We offer floral design services for Quonquont Farm clients as well as off site events.
“When we learned that QQ offered floral services we were so excited. Being able to use QQ grown flowers for our wedding day was an absolute bonus and we could not have been happier. Nicole and Maida created the most gorgeous floral arrangements for our wedding day. They took our inspiration pictures and turned them into reality better than we could have expected!”

“I wanted to express my deepest gratitude for the exquisite floral arrangements you created for our wedding. Your talent and dedication truly made our special day magical and unforgettable.Your ability to capture the wildflower look and feel of the Farm through every aspect of our wedding was absolutely remarkable. The arrangements perfectly reflected our style and added a touch of whimsy to the entire day. From my beautiful bouquet to the stunning selection of smaller centerpieces, every floral detail felt like a true representation of who we are as a couple. Your artistry truly brought our vision to life, and for that, we are incredibly grateful.I also want to take a moment to thank you for your patience and flexibility throughout the planning process. Your responsiveness to our countless emails and your ability to seamlessly incorporate the dahlias we brought with us were truly remarkable. Your dedication to accommodating our requests made us feel valued and ensured that every aspect of the day felt perfect.”

Full Service Flowers
Our garden-style arrangements are created from the abundant flowers, foliage, seedpods, and twigs grown from seed in Quonquont gardens and gathered on farm property. Inspired by the season, they are fresh and relaxed in style with combinations devised for your event from the flowers that are looking their best at the moment. Whether your event is at Quonquont farm or elsewhere, taking our cue from your vision, we create designs to complement your color scheme and style while reflecting the look, feel, and fragrance of the season. Our commitment to seasonal, Quonquont-grown flowers means that though we cannot guarantee specific flowers or colors, we can guarantee they will be beautiful. Those seeking a relaxed, meadow-inspired, “wildflower” look are probably the best match for what we offer. If red roses and Eucalyptus are your thing (not that there’s anything wrong with that!), we are probably not the right choice.
In keeping with Quonquont Farm’s mission, we practice sustainable floristry, using seasonal all-natural elements grown or foraged on the Farm and not subject to post-harvest chemical treatments or dyes. We do not make use of invasive exotic plants. We do not use floral foam in our designs. We aim to avoid single-use plastics, instead searching out reusable, recyclable, or compostable vases, vessels, and supplies.
