WELCOME TO GROW ABILITY FLOWERS
Friend groups love our u-pick & design experiences
where you pay for education and the flowers are FREE!
We are a small woman-owned flower education & wellness center beautifully situated next to Cottage Grove Lake in Oregon. We are an eco-friendly property that proudly serves Cottage Grove, Oregon, as well as Eugene / Springfield and beyond with group u-pick flower fun and learning opportunities around floral design, cultivation, drying, flower art and more. With each experience, you pay for education and the flowers are FREE! Yes, that's right, free. We love to share our flowers as our gift to you and the people of our community - our way of making the world a more loving place. Friend groups love us! Choose your group experience by size. The bigger your group, the more each person saves.
U-PICK YOUR EXPERIENCE!
