I love flowers. To me they are a never-failing source of beauty and joy. I found a lovely source of such beauty and joy at House Flower Farm in Little Falls.
I can’t remember if it was I Spy CNY or My Little Falls who shared Houle Flower Farm on Facebook, but right away I said, “Ooh!” Pro tip: Facebook is a great source for finding local businesses to try.
Houle offers bouquets at a self-serve hut outside their farm on the corner of Rt. 170 and Davis Road. Driving from Herkimer, Google sent me out Rt. 28 and West End Road, which is a lovely rural drive. I pulled in to find one bouquet left to purchase. Phew!
I loved that the bouquet was in a mason jar. I was especially happy when it fit right into my cup holder for the return drive. This time I took Rt. 170 into Little Falls. Being me, I was soon wondering if I had chosen the right direction. I confess to yelling, “Yes!” and making a fist pump when I realized I had.
My lovely bouquet was soon gracing my mantle. Different flowers will be available, depending on what is in season, so I look forward to treating myself to more beauty and joy. Houle also offers flowers by the bucket for special occasions and events. You can contact them at houleflowerfarm@gmail.com.
The hut is located at 2115 Davis Rd., in Little Falls. They are open Sunday through Thursday from 9 a.m. till Sold Out. You can check their Facebook page to see if they are sold out. You can also see some lovely photos there, so I highly recommend Liking their page! For more information, you can visit their website at http://www.houleflowerfarm.com/
