Description
Our July flower subscription packages feature high-quality plants, including sought-after varieties sustainably grown on our flower farm in Uxbridge, Ontario. Bouquets come with a baggy of simple flower food if you choose to use it and a drink of water with your first delivery. Each bouquet comes wrapped in a natural kraft paper sleeve made from a renewable and sustainable source, branded with an Old Barn Flower Farm sticker, which is entirely compostable.
We mix bouquets based on what’s in the field at any given time and offer the unified look of lush bunches for all subscribers. We cannot accommodate special requests; therefore, please take a few seconds to familiarize yourself with the terms of this service. Meeting your expectations is important to us, and a transparent approach is the way we roll.
TERMS OF FLOWER SUBSCRIPTION SERVICE
- We offer medium-sized bouquets, also large ones expanded into even more prominent, striking bouquet arrangements. No matter which selection you make, we are confident these beautiful, organically grown flowers will take anyone’s breath away. (The pictured bouquets have the intent to show an example of some types of flowers and styles one might expect. Throughout the season, there will be hundreds of varieties and colours in our production, and the bouquets will continue to change.)
- Flower subscription deliveries always go out on Tuesdays and Wednesdays, depending on your region. Once subscription packages are booked, we develop a schedule and notify all subscribers with respective delivery dates. Almost always, your delivery will be on the same day of the week. We cannot change dates per individual requests.
- At this time, a flower subscription can be purchased with delivery only if you are in UXBRIDGE, PORT PERRY, MT ALBERT, EAST GWILLIMBURY, NEWMARKET, AURORA, STOUFFVILLE, SUNDERLAND, KESWICK, and GEORGINA. We do not offer a pick-up option for this product, and we cannot support the delivery outside of this geo scope.
- With your first delivery, you will receive a complimentary vessel with a drink of water for your flowers if you are not there to receive them. We kindly ask that you leave the same container outside filled with fresh water just before your next delivery. We’ll remind you, don’t worry! You will find your bouquet in the shaded area of your porch or around your front door. Recipients in apartment and condo buildings, please make sure we can deliver to your unit and that it is OK to leave the flowers in front of your door if you are not at home. (If needed, please check with your building management before making a purchase here.)
- We keep in touch with our subscribers. We send out regular notifications with useful tips on how to care for your flowers, what kind of flowers you may expect in the upcoming bouquets and any interesting bits on our sustainable, local production, which you are so graciously supporting.
- Flower field production in Ontario is highly weather-dependent. While we have many tools at our disposal, from protective tunnels to adequate irrigation, we cannot control Mother Nature. Can anyone?! Although we never experienced crop failure during our young establishment, we like to be prepared for all scenarios. In the event that our fields cannot supply you with the promised flowers, we will first reach out to fellow local growers for a substitute. Should they deal with the same issue and we can’t get your flowers, don’t worry. Unlike the typical CSA (Community Supported Agriculture) subscription, where costs are shared in any event, we WILL issue a refund for non-delivered bouquets. You will always get value for your money.
- If you face unexpected events, such as moving or going for a vacation, it is possible to pause, deliver your flowers to another recipient of choice, or cancel your flower subscription. With a notice of at least one week in advance to our email address at info@oldbarnflowerfarm.com, you can request this change. Not a problem! However, we will not be issuing a refund for the flowers already delivered or very late notices.
- As we mentioned, we cannot accommodate special flower requests in terms of their colours or if you have safety concerns around plants that may contain certain toxic properties or can cause pollen allergies. By washing your hands after handling the bouquet and keeping flowers out of reach of small kids and pets, they are safe to display at home, office and elsewhere. Read more in-depth about this topic and other points listed here in our Frequently Asked Questions section on our Flower Subscription page. After reading, if you still have concerns, perhaps this program is not the best option for you.
- In the event of any unplanned circumstances not covered here, we reserve the right to make changes to this program with timely communication to all subscribers.
- By purchasing any one of our Flower Subscription packages, you agree with the Terms of this service.
