We’re changing over to our summer greenhouse hours beginning now. Sundays 1:00-4:00. It’s getting hot in here, but we’ve still got a nice selection of tomato and pepper plants and other veg, plus cool annuals you won’t find elsewhere, perennials, herbs, & some rad native plants. And as always, succulents, houseplants, popping corn, concrete statuary, etc. Plus check out our free little library!

Summer farmstand opening TBA!

Shared rides help on-demand travel work smarter.

When you order a Milford Micro ride, the program looks for a vehicle already heading in your direction. That matching model keeps local trips efficient, shared, and affordable at $3 per passenger.
