Description
Creating your own floral arrangement is not only fun, but it can be a budget-friendly option when looking for a lot of flowers for a special event. With our offer of a large bucket full of mixed flowers, you are at the source of locally grown, organic blooms and foliage, freshly cut a day before the pick-up.
Depending on what’s in the field at the time of your order, your bucket will be filled with 90-120 stems of focal and supporting flowers, as well as textural plants and foliage that together make stunning bouquets. While we guarantee gorgeous varieties to be included in your bucket, this, however, does not cover some of the sought-after, highest-quality blooms. And while some may still be a part of your mix, certain kinds of dahlias, rare sunflowers, roses, peonies, ranunculus and such are not included. If you are looking to add some of those specialty flowers to your order, please inquire about their availability and prices as straight bunches. Email us at info@oldbarnflowerfarm.com.
TERMS OF SERVICE – DIY FLOWER BUCKETS:
- We offer a lush mix of flowers and foliage that fits into a large bucket. Depending on the seasonal offerings and the available varieties, the bucket can hold between 90 to 120 stems. A bucket is not included, so we ask that you bring your own bucket/s when you come to pick up your flowers. (The pictured arrangements have the intent to show an example of some types of flowers one might expect. Throughout the season, there will be hundreds of varieties and colours in our production, and the mix will continue to change.)
- DIY flower buckets must be ordered at least seven days before pick-up; the sooner, the better, especially if you’d like to run some special requests by us. More time is required to answer your questions and prepare any special arrangements in terms of pick up or delivery. Transactions with less than seven days lead time will be cancelled.
- Our DIY flower buckets come as a pick-up option by default. Pick-up is at our farm in rural Uxbridge, about 50 to 60 minutes drive North-East from Toronto, 35 minutes from Newmarket and about 15 minutes North-West from Uxbridge centre. The exact address will be provided upon completion of the transaction and when we get closer to the date since the farm is not open to the public and accepts visits by appointment only. Delivery is also possible for an additional fee, and if you ask about it well in advance to make sure we have availability in our schedule. Our delivery area includes Uxbridge, Port Perry, Mt Albert, East Gwillimbury, Newmarket, Aurora, Stouffville, Sunderland, Keswick, and Georgina, but we can facilitate locations outside of this scope for special events.
- Pick-up (or delivery) of your flowers is typically scheduled on the morning of your event or the day before to ensure the freshest arrangements. If you can, it’s best that you send someone to pick up your flowers at this time. They will be hydrated and ready to go. Flowers are living things, and they are susceptible to the conditions they are kept in and the way they are managed. Therefore, once you load them into your car, from that moment, their appearance and freshness are your sole responsibility. Of course, we will give you all the best tips to have them look great and last long.
- If you think you may want to choose delivery over pick-up, or you would like to add more flowers to your order, please inquire about the additional costs before purchasing your DIY flower buckets at info@oldbarnflowerfarm.com. If you are feeling good about your new offer, we will create a revised version with the opportunity to pay all costs in one transaction.
- Our flower mix may include blooms with pollen, strong scents, and some common plants with certain toxicity levels, such as foxglove, yarrow, and hydrangea, to name a few. Washing hands after handling flowers and keeping arrangements away from children and pets are recommended precautions. We will not be responsible if our flowers cause allergic reactions or other harm.
- We would like to encourage you to send us any additional messages you might have during the checkout or via email at info@oldbarnflowerfarm.com. If you really don’t want to see specific flowers in your bucket, you may indicate so. Also, a short description of desired colour palette and flowers is welcome. We will use this information as a guide to provide you with a mix as close as possible to what you had in mind. However, we make no guarantees whatsoever as we can only work with what is produced in the garden. Therefore, by purchasing a DIY flower bucket from us, you must be comfortable receiving our best choice available at the time of your order.
- We do not issue refunds on DIY flower bucket products as the flowers are solely planned to fill up your bucket/s.
- By purchasing a DIY flower bucket from us, you agree with the Terms of this service.
