Back in the springJune to the first frost, daily. Just turn up. Kids are welcome with an adult. Give yourself an hour.

Wear shoes you don't mind getting dirty. The rows are uneven and it stays damp under the flowers. Cut the dahlias but leave the plants in the ground, they will give you more. Kids are welcome with an adult. Give yourself an hour. People tend to stay longer than they meant to.
