Miss Effie's Country Flowers and Garden Stuff
Welcome to the first U-Pick flower farm in Iowa. Walk through our acre of flowers and cut the perfect blossoms for your bouquet. Our flowers are grown naturally without the use of harmful pesticides. The selection changes by the season.. there is always something new.
Our farmhouse was built in 1892 and is a perfect example of a Queen Anne Classic-L Victorian farmhouse. These houses were built throughout the upper Midwest by German, Swedish and Norwegian immigrants as they settled on homesteads. In honor of the family that settled here first, we have Jenny's Garden ......... a garden full of the flowers of the 1890's.
Miss Effie's will remind you of your grandparent's farm. The rolling hills, clothes on the line and chickens and ducks roaming our gardens will take you to a simpler era. Relax with a glass of lemonade in our corn-zebo and remember a life from yesterday. You are always welcome to bring a lunch and enjoy the sounds and sights of rural America.
