Dynomite Farm
Membership at Dynomite Farm
Membership at Dynomite Farm is about community built around the simple joy of our flowers, the garden and our urban farm mission.
We believe in making fresh flowers local and accessible and we started this little organic flower farm to do just that. And crazy as it may sound, we’re inviting you to share in our flower serving mission.
With fresh flower bouquets from March through September, we will be here creating a wonderful field of blooms for you to enjoy in person and with blooms to take home. For those not local to Santa Cruz, we encourage you to support our efforts as well and enjoy everything we do here through our videos and the images we share throughout on the season on our website.
Be a part of something unique and extraordinary and became a part of our Dynomite Farm community by becoming a member.
Your support helps pay for compost, seeds, corms, tubers, water, and all the quiet behind-the-scenes work that makes the garden bloom. And we put that support to good use in growing our award winning flowers!
Members receive private, by-appointment only, U-Cut Flower Experience visits in both spring (ranunculus) and summer (dahlias).
We have three membership levels for the 2026 season:
- Supporting Membership – for those who share our vision and believe in our urban flower farm mission.
- Patron Membership – our core membership for those wanting two private U-Cut Experience visits.
- Benefactor Membership – a top-tier membership for people who want more flowers, more visits, and a deeper connection to the farm.
For the 2026 season, our public (non-member) U-Cut Flower Experience price is $59.00.

Supporting – $18 / year
Our Supporting Membership is the simplest way to support and stand behind our organic flower farm and help keep it growing season after season. Whether your local to Santa Cruz, California or a supporter from far away, your support means we keep going!
Your membership supports the essentials that make the garden thrive: compost, seeds, tubers, corms, irrigation, and the steady behind-the-scenes labor that brings our raised beds into bloom.
Supporting Members get early access to our Dahlia Tuber Shop during the member sale window, plus a free Mystery Dahlia Tuber as a little thank-you from the field.

We’re better at growing flowers than doing math. Fortunately our Dynomite Farm community has many talents. I’m told, if you do the math, the Patron Membership saves you about 50% and the Benefactor Membership saves you 60% versus our non-member cutting fee.
That notwithstanding, we’d love to welcome you as a member at Dynomite Farm at any level!
