Boost The Bloom : Start The Season Strong
Fuel early planting & soil prep for the Dahlia Trials.
Dahlias are the headliners of the summer vase — exuberant, sculptural, and showstopping as an East End sunset. But with hundreds of varieties (and more emerging each season), finding the ones that thrive on our coast can feel like chasing fireworks.
This gift helps CCE trial over 100 dahlia varieties each year — spotlighting the strongest bloomers for local farmers, home gardeners, and floral designers. It also fuels seasonal workshops and resources that bring this knowledge to the field.
Your support helps ensure the future of flower-forward farming on the East End — one petal, plot, and picnic bouquet at a time.
