Descripción
We are Allan and Manja, a former librarian and accountant. We took early retirement to start a u-pick tulip and flower farm. Our farm is located in south east rural Ottawa, about a 25 minute drive from downtown. We are open to the public to pick flowers in May and July through August. We are focused on scaling up our flower business and we are finding our house to-do list is sadly neglected.

Intercambio cultural y oportunidades de aprendizaje
We are located a 25 minute car ride away from downtown Ottawa. We are happy to share our historical and cultural knowledge of the area. We are willing to drive you to the nearest bus or train stop. You are welcome to join us on our shopping trips into town. If you are interested in flower farming, Manja, is very keen on sharing her knowledge.
Because our house is located on a road that connects to a larger road, we have many friends popping in for a few minutes to chat or stay for coffee. You will find that our farm is busy with people coming and going through out the day. This will be especially the case this year as we are having a large barn constructed on site.
Our daughter works on the farm and often brings our young grandchildren with her. We have several young people working on the farm. We traveled widely while living in Qatar for 10 years. We enjoy meeting people to learn about their culture and listen to their stories.Ayuda
