Wendalane Farms
Welcome to Wendalane Farms where we grow farm fresh, seasonal cut flowers. Our farm is located in Niagara, Ontario and when in season you can find our flowers available from our roadside stand as well as at the Grimsby's Farmers' Market.
For the love of flowers
Our flowers are grown all outdoors (no greenhouses here) and are subject to the weather - but that's what makes seasonal flowers that much more special. Seeds are started in January, bulbs and perennials start blooming in May and June, and then the season shifts to an abundance of annuals through the rest of the summer. Finally, the fall season brings on the best of the dahlias and the last of the heat loving annuals.
We do our best to practice sustainable growing methods. Our field is full of heavy clay where we amend with compost and cycle through many cover crops as well as trying out some no-till beds.

Our Farm
Jen and Bob met while both earning teaching degrees. They were married and moved to the Niagara region where they both got jobs teaching high school. In their spare time, Bob loved working with computers and reading; Jen loved starting a variety seeds and expanding her garden.
When they unexpectedly moved on to Bob's family farm, there was no limit to the number of flower beds Jen could fill. Now, 20 years later, what started out as Jen's obsession with starting too many seeds has turned into a pretty fun small flower farm.
Jen no longer teaches but now grows the flowers along with their kids. And the pattern that started years ago continues, Bob still preps the beds and Jen fills them as fast as he can make them!
