From Seedling to Market: A Workshop for New Dahlia Creators

From Seedling to Market: A Workshop for New Dahlia Creators

September 4, 2026 · 2:00–8:00 PM
Triple Wren Farms, Ferndale, Washington

We invite you to join us at Triple Wren Farms for a brand-new, hands-on workshop designed especially for new and aspiring dahlia creators. We're sharing what we've learned about the business-side of bringing a new dahlia to market.  If you’ve ever dreamed of hybridizing your own dahlia or wondered how new varieties actually make it to market, this immersive half-day experience will guide you through the journey, from first seedling to successful introduction.

Learn directly from Sarah and Steve Pabody as they share the tools, frameworks, and behind-the-scenes processes that have shaped Triple Wren’s work with hybridizers around the world. You’ll walk the fields, participate in guided sessions, enjoy a farm dinner at golden hour, and even hybridize your own dahlia (with the seeds mailed to you later as a keepsake)!

This workshop is warm, inspiring, practical, and deeply rooted in beauty.
No prior experience is required.
