Our story

We are Ellen and Sophie; sisters, 7th generation farmers, and flower lovers!

Agriculture and farming has always been a passion of ours. Being raised on a dairy farm allowed us to get our hands dirty and learn how things grow. As we both grew up, farming has remained one of our passions and we've developed a special appreciation for cut flowers.
           In the spring of 2021, we decided to expand our cut flower garden and attempt to sell some of our bouquets at the bottom of our driveway in the bus stop we used as kids. We called it "The Posy Shed". We were blown away with the demand for local flowers and the support of our community. With only a small garden, we managed to produce countless stems for our customers that were used for various events, weddings and enjoyed on many dining room tables.
         As our first growing year concluded, we decided to expand our flower business and begin our journey as “Sharp Brook Flower Farm”. Named after the brook that flows through our family farm. We now grow over 50 varieties of flowers on about an acre of land. The same land that our family has been farming for over 200 years. Through workshops, u-picks, weddings, The Posy Shed and wholesale to florists, we aim to spread the joy of local blooms as much as possible.

In 2022, we began growing a few acres of heirloom pumpkins. We became passionate about all the various colors and textures that we had never seen before. We now grow over 30 varieties of pink, green, blue, orange, yellow, white, warty, and speckled pumpkins/gourds. They are such a beautiful addition to the fall months!

We're looking forward to another growing season with the hopes of learning and bringing more beauty to our community!
