Hello, we are Tom and Catherine Mix and we invite you to enjoy our farm and gardens! The Cutting Garden is a 20-acre farm thriving in the alluvial soil of the the Dungeness river delta on the Olympic Peninsula of Washington State. We are happy to be preserving a small part of the agricultural heritage of Clallam County. On our flower farm we grow hundreds of varieties of Dahlias, and dozens of varieties of annual and perennial flowering plants (including "scentsational" lavender), which are available as U-cut flowers June through September.
Together our extensive perennial gardens and the sunny yellow farm house create the perfect setting for your family's celebrations such as birthday parties, weddings, reunions, bat and bar mitzvahs, afternoon teas, and more.
If you would like to buy some of the plants from our display gardens, our gift store will open in late May this year. In addition to plants, and lavender based products such as soaps and lotions, we offer Catherine's original artwork and high quality reproductions of her paintings in the form of prints and cards.
Please bring your camera or how about your paints and easel? Take time to enjoy acres of flowers with the spactacular backdrop of the Olympic Mountains. With less than 20 inches of rain each year, Sequim is the perfect location for these activities. The Cutting Garden is open daily June through September. Click here for directions and a map. If you cannot visit us in person, enjoy a photo tour of the Cutting Garden.
We look forward to meeting you!
Over the years, many talented people have helped us create and maintain this lush garden. Sharon Nyenhuis of Bentley Gardens (360-683-4468) created the initial garden design, Ben Smith of Maple View Dairy (360-681-2838) provides the annual smother mulch of "Sequim Gold" cow manure, DripWorks USA carries the line of garden watering products we use, and Brooks Petrowkowski (pictured at right) is our talented and very hard working head gardener.
