Upcoming events.
Pinnacle Farms at the Candy Corn Market
Join us on Saturday, September 21 from 9-3:00 at The Candy Corn Market at the Smokey Moutain Event Center! We will have a booth set up and also be selling our dried flower and pumpkin arrangements, fresh and dried bouquets, and dried flower wreaths!
Dried Flowers and Pumpkin Arrangement Presale
September 1, at 8 am my pumpkin and dried flower arrangement preorder will start on my website. This was one of my top items last season. We sold over 100 arrangements. I only have so many pumpkins so by preordering, you guarantee yourself one will be waiting for you.
These combine two of my favorite things. Flowers and crafting! So, I love, love, love making these arrangements. The arrangement is made with a real pumpkin with your color choice of orange or white and Pinnacle Farms’ dried flowers! This can decorate your home through Thanksgiving and beyond. And makes a beautiful center piece for your table! The pumpkins are considered pie pumpkin size and are approximately 6-7 inches in diameter, but they will vary in size as they are real pumpkins. I guarantee this centerpiece to last until Thanksgiving if kept indoors, in a stable room temperature environment, out of direct sunlight, and not dropped or punctured. These require zero maintenance. The flowers are dried so they don't need watered or spritzed. The flowers on each pumpkin will vary but I will include a sunflower or dahlia as the focal flower on each arrangement.

Sunset You-Pick Event
On Friday, July 26 I’m going to host my first ever You-Pick Sunset Event! For this event I have lined up to have Ben’s Backdraft BQQ food truck and Frozen Josie’s Ice Cream Truck set up at the flower field and customers can purchase food if they choose. Then you can bring a picnic blanket and enjoy a meal in the field with family and friends! There are no tickets to purchase prior, and you are not obligated to eat. If you prefer, you can simply purchase my $25 cup or $90 bucket and pick flowers until your vessel is full or it gets dark. You can also just roam the field for a $5 entry fee if you're not interested in picking flowers. There will also be 10 local craft vendors set up selling flower related goods.

This year I have purchased 200 trees which include Honeycrisp, Ginger Gold, and Golden Delicious. They’ll probably cost about $20-$25 per tree. You can also purchase any Barber Orchards jarred goods during this time.
