Garden Club Programs
Have Merrie come to your event
Book Merrie for Speaking Engagements
Bring the story of specialty cut flowers, dahlias, and life on a working flower farm to your next garden club gathering.
​
With over 30 years of experience growing flowers, designing gardens, and building Dreamland Flower Farm, Merrie shares engaging programs that combine horticultural knowledge, personal stories, and a deep appreciation for the beauty and lessons found in the garden.
​
Her presentations go beyond simply growing flowers — they explore the passion, patience, creativity, and connection that make gardening such a meaningful part of our lives. Members will leave inspired with new ideas, practical knowledge, and a greater appreciation for the flowers they grow and enjoy.
​
Merrie’s programs blend education, storytelling, and inspiration — creating an experience that celebrates the joy of gardening and the lifelong connection we share with flowers.
​
Contact Dreamland Flower Farm to discuss bringing Merrie to your next garden club meeting or special event.
