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.
