Lena Farms was founded in the early 1980's by Justine and Bill Amadon and was known as "The Pumpkin Farm". It is a family farm that is still owned and operated by Justine and Bill.
In the early days the farm focused on retail fall sales. Painted pumpkins, Jack-o-lanterns, Zoe's pies, farm animals, a haunted house and more made it the place to be in the fall. The pies and farm animals have been replaced with magnificent mums and fall decorations.
Makeshift greenhouses gradually evolved to 5 plus professional units. Today you will find a full offering of magnificent annual flowers, herbs, perennials and vegetable plants.
Wave petunias were the first of the Supertunias and they are grown in abundance at the farm today. We are a "Proven Winner" registered grower that offers dozens of choices in premium flowering annuals including the hottest varieties for 2011. Some of those varieties are Coralberry Punch Calibrachoa, Shockwave Denim and Simply Picasso Petunia.
Container size is most important to ensure the longest season for your plants. We use full size 12" hanging baskets for our main crop instead of the 10" found most places. A beautiful plant in a proper size container deserves to be properly displayed. Sheppard hooks, wall-hangers as well rustic as and unique planters are offered to help make the most of your plant purchases.
A wide variety of vegetable plants that are proven to grow in the Northeast are offered. All plants are labeled and descriptions of the varieties are on display. As always individual personal assistance is available.
Small space and container gardening continues to increase in popularity. We offer varieties and help with those purchases. Upside down tomatoes have been grown and sold here for over 20 years. Lettuce and herb bowls are in abundance.
