Come Visit The Grove
Come for the flowers, the fresh air, the escape, the experience.
The Details…
We are located in the heart of Somers, behind the white commercial building that houses Taste Deli and the Dry Cleaners. Just drive around behind the building to find the farm.
265 US Route 202, Somers, New York.
————————————————————————————--
Parking is available in the Taste building parking lot. For the safety of our visitors, please do not drive down the farm driveway to the barn.
We are located about an hour north of New York City.
When driving north from NYC, we can be reached using either exit 6A or 7 off Interstate 684 North.
When driving South, we can be reached using exit 8 from Interstate 684 South
During open season, we have one porta-potty on site for customer use.
Things to Keep in Mind When Visiting…
Honeybee Grove is kid friendly! But not super stroller friendly as you will be walking in a field, on woodchips, and weed fabric. There are bumps, dirt and sometimes mud.
We accept all major credit cards and Apple Pay.
Friendly dogs are allowed ONLY in the front grassy area of the farm, where the Farmer’s Market is held, and not allowed in the gardens. Many common plants and flowers are toxic to household pets. For the safety of the dogs and our flowers, please be a responsible dog owner. Dog urine kills, this is our livelihood. Please do not allow your pet to potty on the flowers and our farm equipment.
Outside food is allowed, at the tables but be sure to clean up after yourself. No outside alcohol.
Please respect the flowers and wildlife while on premises, some bugs are great for the flowers and our eco-system.
Tick check upon leaving, nature is wonderful but those buggers are sneaky! Sunscreen, bug spray and proper footwear can be helpful.
Please note, many types of flowers are toxic to humans and household pets. Be sure to take care when on the property and back at home.
This is a working farm. Our grounds are a work in progress and are under construction. Please avoid any roped off areas of the farm in order to protect our plantings as well as your own safety.
No smoking or vaping allowed anywhere on the property.
Please stay off the farm machinery as these are for farm use and are not safe for children to climb.
